在员工创造力中人与情境互动的动机透镜模型(Motivational Lens Model)
个人创造力源于个人特质与其所运作的情境的相互作用,这是创造力文献中最突出的主题之一。文献综述强调了在人-情境创造力(person-in-situation
creativity)研究中观察到的5种不同的互动模式(特质激活、特质抑制、特质替代、特质通道和曲线交互)。但是,目前还没有一个整合的理论可以预测和解释这5种互动模式。
为了发展这种整合理论,我们提出了人-情境创造力的动机透镜模型。动机透镜模型通过一系列简化的考虑因素,为人与情境的互动提供了一个综合的理论解释:(a)兴趣特征是与(有助于)创造力的内在动机还是与外部动机相关联(即:在回应外部线索时,哪一个可以被导向创造力);(b)兴趣的情境变量在多大程度上反映了创造的机会或对创造力的期望;以及(c)情形变量与机会或期望是线性还是曲线相关的。我们讨论了动机透镜模型如何为未来的创造力研究以及潜在的创造力领域之外的人与情境的研究提供信息。
The
idea that individual creativity derives from the interaction of
personal traits and the situation in which the individual operates, is
one of the most prominent themes within the creativity literature. A
review of the literature highlights 5 distinct interaction patterns
observed in person-in-situation creativity research (trait activation,
trait inhibition, trait substitution, trait channeling, and curvilinear
interactions). Yet at present there is no integrative theory that can
predict and explain all 5 interaction patterns. To develop such
integrative theory, we propose the motivational lens model of
person-in-situation creativity.
The motivational lens model offers
an integrative theoretical account of person-in-situation interactions
through a parsimonious set of considerations: (a) whether the trait of
interest is associated with intrinsic motivation for (activities
conducive to) creativity or with extrinsic motivation (i.e., which can
be directed toward creativity in response to extrinsic cues), (b) the
extent to which the situation variable of interest reflects
opportunities for creativity or expectations for creativity, and (c)
whether the situation variable is linearly or curvilinearly related to
opportunities or expectations. We discuss how the motivational lens
model informs future creativity research and potentially
person-in-situation research beyond the creativity domain.
