目的：卓越创造力与双相情感障碍之间的关系已有报道，但在临床样本中，很少有非卓越创造力与双相情感障碍相关的数据。方法：49个BP、25个MDD、32个CC和47个HC(全部为正向情绪)完成了4个创造性测量，得到了6个参数：Barron-Welsh Art Scale(BWAS-Total，两个子量表，Bwas-Dislike和Bwas-Like两个子量表)，形容词检查表创造性人格量表(ACL-CPS)，以及托伦斯创造性思维测试-图形(TCT-F)和口头(TCT-V)版本。结果：BP和CC(但不是MDD)与HC相比，BP-Total(分别高出45%和48%)和BWAS-Unlike(分别高出90%和88%)得分显著更高，但在类BWAS型上没有显著差异。与MDD相比，CC在TTCT-F上的得分显著更高(高12%)。结论：我们发现BP和CC(但不是MDD)与HC相比，BWAS-Total的创造力增强程度相似，这是由BWAS-DLike的增加推动的。需要进一步的研究来确定增强创造力的机制，以及它如何与临床(例如，气质、情绪和用药状态)和临床前(例如，视觉和情感加工底物)参数相关。(C)2006爱思唯尔B.V.保留所有权利。
Objective: Associations between eminent creativity and bipolar disorders have been reported, but there are few data relating noneminent creativity to bipolar disorders in clinical samples. We assessed non-eminent creativity in euthymic bipolar (BP) and unipolar major depressive disorder (MDD) patients, creative discipline controls (CC), and healthy controls (HC).Methods: 49 BP, 25 MDD, 32 CC, and 47 HC (all euthymic) completed four creativity measures yielding six parameters: the Barron-Welsh Art Scale (BWAS-Total, and two subscales, BWAS-Dislike and BWAS-Like), the Adjective Check List Creative Personality Scale (ACL-CPS), and the Torrance Tests of Creative Thinking - Figural (TTCT-F) and Verbal (TTCT-V) versions. Mean scores on these instruments were compared across groups.Results: BP and CC (but not MDD) compared to HC scored significantly higher on BWAS-Total (45% and 48% higher, respectively) and BWAS-Dislike (90% and 88% higher, respectively), but not on BWAS-Like. CC compared to MDD scored significantly higher (12% higher) on TTCT-F. For all other comparisons, creativity scores did not differ significantly between groups.Conclusions: We found BP and CC (but not MDD) bad similarly enhanced creativity on the BWAS-Total (driven by an increase on the BWAS-Dislike) compared to HC. Further studies are needed to determine the mechanisms of enhanced creativity and how it relates to clinical (e.g. temperament, mood, and medication status) and preclinical (e.g. visual and affective processing substrates) parameters.
