Creativity Levels of Interior Design and Non–interior Design Majors
View through CrossRef
Previous research indicates little or no evidence to suggest creativity is linked to a particular college major though some people believe certain college majors have students who score higher on creativity tests. This study was conducted to determine creativity levels of interior design (ID) majors and non–ID majors (hotel and restaurant administration; HRA). A creativity instrument (How Do You Think?, Adult; Davis, 1977) was administered during regular class time to 36 ID majors and 44 HRA majors in the College of Home Economics. Results indicate that the ID majors scored significantly higher than HRA majors and that males scored higher than females. There was no interaction effect of gender and major. Data is discussed in relation to selection and identification of ID majors.
