Abstract

In this study, it was aimed to examine the relation-ships between creative imagination and intelligence and to test the threshold hypothesis with younger students. The sample included 492 students aged 5-7 years. The Anadolu Sak Intelligence Scale was used to measure intelligence and Creative Imagination Cards were used to measure creativity. Firstly the relationship between intelligence and creative imagination scores were analyzed, and then the correlation values of the lower and upper groups were compared. To determine the threshold at other IQ levels, different from 120 IQ, segmented regression analysis were performed. A weak relationship was found between intelligence and creative imagination. The results showed that the threshold theory was not supported in younger children. Even, according to the segmented regression analysis, inverse threshold effect was observed between creative imagination scores and general intelligence scores around 120 IQ. This is interpreted as the fact that in contrast to the threshold hypothesis, intelligence level above the 120 IQ, provides an advantage in the creative imagination process for young age groups.

Özet

Bu çalışmanın amacı küçük yaş grubundaki öğrencilerde yaratıcı hayal gücü ve zekâ ilişkisinin incelenmesi, eşik hipotezinin test edilmesidir. Çalışmada 5-7 yaş arası 492 öğrenci yer almıştır. Zekânın ölçümünde Anadolu-Sak Zekâ Ölçeği; yaratıcılığın ölçümünde Yaratıcı Hayal Gücü Kartları kullanılmıştır. Analiz aşamasında zekâ ve yaratıcı hayal gücü puanları arasındaki ilişkilere bakılmış; hipotezde belirtilen 120 IQ düzeyine göre alt ve üst grupların korelasyon değerleri karşılaştırılmıştır. Başka düzeylerde eşik değerin varlığını test etmek için ise parçalı regresyon analizi yapılmıştır. Çalışmada zekâ ve yaratıcı hayal gücü arasında zayıf bir ilişki bulunmuş; küçük yaş gruplarında eşik hipotezi desteklenmemiştir. Hatta parçalı regresyon analizinde yaratıcılık endeksleri ile genel zekâ düzeyi arasında 120 IQ civarında ters bir eşik değer etkisi gözlenmiştir. Bu durum eşik hipotezinin aksine küçük yaş gruplarında sahip olunan zekâ bileşenlerinin, 120 IQ’nun üzerine çıkıldıkça yaratıcı hayal gücü sürecine avantaj sağladığı şeklinde yorumlanmıştır.
