Fostering creative behavior among university women

Limited research concerning creativity in women suggests areas of concern for people in leadership positions. Providing for early detection of creativity and for same sex role models is critical if women are to develop creative expression within the context of education. This study was designed to ascertain the potential influence of training activities among university women and between experimental and control groups. Creativity was measured by the Something About Myself (SAM) inventory. Findings of this study indicated the need for university women to be encouraged to become more resourceful, more versatile, and more willing to take risks.
