This paper by Simon Ceh, Felix Putze, and @BenedekMathias, is one of my favorites I’ve read in a while! psycnet.apa.org/record/2023-90…

We’ve been working for nearly a decade on Serial Season 4 and can’t wait for you to hear it starting March 28. deadline.com/2024/02/serial…

Honored to be recognized as a creativity research star of the new millennium and to be invited to contribute to a SI in the Creativity Research Journal, modelling a new perspective to understand the role of individual differences in the creative process. tandfonline.com/eprint/KFJJEEU…

To our European friends, thank you for your patience and dedication in traveling to the US for so many SfNC meetings. It’s past time for a meeting in Europe—I can’t wait to see everyone in Paris next year!

Super excited this paper is finally out! Written by my two superstar students - a must read!

Happy to see Estonian students ranking 1st in Europe in the OECD’s PISA Creative Thinking test. This confirms that our education system successfully develops students' creativity and problem-solving skills. Smart ideas and effective solutions are key for future prosperity.

ChatGPT can homogenize human creativity, causing generated ideas to be more semantically similar. Users also reported feeling less responsible for ideas produced with ChatGPT (compared to not using AI).

few weeks ago I successfully defended my doctoral thesis about the digital transformation of creative behaviors!👨‍🎓👆🥳

The Call for Papers for Div 10's 2025 research conference in New Haven CT is out! The submission deadlines are Nov 1 (symposia, talks, posters) and Jan 24 (posters only). See below for details: div10.org/call-for-paper…

Creativity and exploration modulated by executive function. In new work in Psych Review, Yoed Kenett and I explain how cognitive control can produce apparent structural change in semantic retrieval, producing faster and more creative responses. psycnet.apa.org/record/2025-25…

The submission deadline for Div 10's 2025 conference in New Haven is slowly approaching! Nov 1 is the deadline for symposia, talks, and posters. Jan 25 is the posters-only "last call" deadline. See below for details. div10.org/call-for-paper…

Why do we celebrate #vangogh? Because he summarized a vast history of art and demonstrated how impressionism would change it.

New research in collaboration with Lucas Bellaiche now published in the Creativity Research Journal -- Do Individual Differences in Creativity Predict AI-Assisted Art Quality? tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.10…

Meta-analysis (n=52 studies, 195 effect sizes) confirms the incubation effect: taking breaks away from a problem leads to more creative solutions (d=0.39) psycnet.apa.org/record/2025-57…

It’s crazy how talking with a science buddy is simultaneously what’s most likely to move the project forward and the thing that’s least prioritized in our schedule.

Congratulations to CNCL grad student Simone Luchini on receiving the Frank Baron Award---for superior contributions to creativity research by a grad student---from APA Division 10 of the APA. And congrats to the other Div10 award winners this year! 🥳👏

Simone trained people to increase default mode and executive brain network coupling using neurofeedback, which boosted creative thinking—showing a double dissociation. A big technical undertaking and his first-first author brain paper 👏

🚨Check out our recent preprint on human-AI co-creativity in story writing! 🔍🔍🔍We investigate the mechanisms that underlie the outcomes of human-AI co-creativity in a highly naturalistic setting. doi.org/10.31234/osf.i…

LLMs still struggle with creativity. How can we make them more creative? Train AI on what people actually consider creative. We built a dataset of 200k+ human creativity ratings and used it to train a model that outperforms GPT-4o on creativity tests. arxiv.org/abs/2505.14442

I enjoyed writing this article with Mathias Benedek, where we imagine the future of creativity testing, building on PISA's 2022 Creative Thinking assessment. We're hoping to turn these ideas into reality in the coming year. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/jo…
