两个实验，涉及416名前青春期学龄儿童，考察了金钱奖励对广义创造性绩效和内在创造性兴趣的影响。在实验1中，明确的要求，新的性能在1个任务（产生不寻常的用途的物理对象）产生更大的后续创造性的表现在一个完全不同的任务（绘画）时，大的奖励，而不是一个小的奖励或没有奖励。在实验2中，奖励新的表现增加了随后的内在创造性的兴趣，在这里测量的选择，以产生原始的图纸，而不是复制一个熟悉的图纸。内在的创造性兴趣降低，只有奖励非创造性的表现。这些研究结果表明，显着奖励的新颖性能的显式要求，提高了广义的创造力，而没有任何损失的内在创造性兴趣。
Two experiments, involving 416 preadolescent school children, investigated the effects of monetary reward on generalized creative performance and intrinsic creative interest. In Experiment 1, the explicit requirement of novel performance in 1 task (generating unusual uses for physical objects) produced greater subsequent creative performance in an entirely different task (picture drawing) when a large reward was used rather than a small reward or no reward. In Experiment 2, reward for novel performance increased subsequent intrinsic creative interest, measured here by the choice to produce original drawings rather than copy a familiar drawing. Intrinsic creative interest was reduced only by reward for uncreative performance. These findings suggest that the explicit requirement of novel performance for salient reward enhances generalized creativity without any loss of intrinsic creative interest.
