历史和经验数据将艺术创造力与抑郁症和其他情感障碍联系起来。本研究探讨了如何脆弱性，体验负面影响，测量与生物制品，强烈的负面情绪影响艺术创造力。作者评估了参与者的肾上腺类固醇（硫酸脱氢表雄酮，或DHEAS）的基线水平，以前与抑郁症有关，作为情感脆弱性的衡量标准。然后，他们通过随机分配参与者接受社会拒绝或社会认可或非社会情况来操纵情绪反应。然后，参与者完成艺术拼贴画，随后由艺术家进行评估。结果证实了一个人的情况下的相互作用。社会排斥与更大的艺术创造力;然而，情感脆弱性（较低的基线DHEAS）和条件之间的相互作用是显着的，这表明，情境触发的负面影响是特别有影响力的DHEAS较低，这导致了最有创意的产品。这些数据为艺术创造力的可能生物和社会途径提供了证据。
Historical and empirical data have linked artistic creativity to depression and other affective disorders. This study examined how vulnerability to experiencing negative affect, measured with biological products, and intense negative emotions influenced artistic creativity. The authors assessed participants' baseline levels of an adrenal steroid (dehydroepiandrosterone-sulfate, or DHEAS), previously linked to depression, as a measure of affective vulnerability. They then manipulated emotional responses by randomly assigning participants to receive social rejection or social approval or to a nonsocial situation. Participants then completed artistic collages, which were later evaluated by artists. Results confirmed a person-by-situation interaction. Social rejection was associated with greater artistic creativity; however, the interaction between affective vulnerability (lower baseline DHEAS) and condition was significant, suggesting that situational triggers of negative affect were especially influential among those lower in DHEAS, which resulted in the most creative products. These data provide evidence of possible biological and social pathways to artistic creativity.
