Symposium Title: Measuring and Understanding Aspects of Convergent and Divergent Thinking
The symposium offers diverse perspectives on the measurement and understanding of convergent (i.e., cognitive abilities) and divergent thinking (i.e., creativity). This includes the presentation of novel gamified measurement approaches, considerations of different measurement formats and scorings, and the results of multivariate studies that paint a broader picture regarding the constructs.
