CALL FOR PAPERS



What is creativity?  What are the characteristics of creative individuals?  What external influences (social, political, cultural, historical, religious) shape creativity and creative products?  How does creativity develop in children?  What is the relationship between creativity and mental health?  What is the relationship between creativity and brain functioning?    



"Perspectives on Creativity," sponsored by Holy Family University, aims to bring together individuals from a wide array of disciplines, such as psychology, philosophy, theology, sociology, and the arts, to explore answers to these questions.  The keynote speaker will be Dr. Ellen Winner, Professor of psychology at Boston College, and author of Invented Worlds: The Psychology of the Arts.  



We invite paper proposals addressing any of the topics discussed above and using a variety of methodologies, including empirical and correlational research, historical reviews, and critical analyses.  Papers should have a presentation time of 35-45 minutes.  A small number of papers not chosen for oral presentation will be chosen for poster presentation.  Notification will be made within one week of the submission deadline.
