The Influence of Creative Personality Factors on Interpersonal Adjustment in Adolescents: What's the Relationship?

The relationship between factors of creative personality and interpersonal adjustment was analysed in 130 Sicilian adolescents aged 14-18 years. Test of creative personality (Williams, 1994, ) was used for the evaluation of curiosity (Cu), preference for complexity (Co), imagination (Im), and willingness to risk-taking (Wr); Interpersonal Adjustment Questionnaire (Di Nuovo, 1998) was utilized for the analysis of passivity, impulsivity, narcissism, Self-image worry, and social stress. Results showed that Cu and Wr correlated both negatively with passivity, and Wr correlated negatively with stress in social situations.
