中学生聚合思维发展特点的研究

聚合思维作为创造力的一个组成部分,到底具有什么样的发展特点,与创造力发展趋势之间存在何种异同,男女生之间又有何差异,是许多研究者试图解决和正在努力解决的问题。与此同时,编制有效的、适合中国国情的聚合思维测量量表,了解中学生聚合思维能力的发展特点,无疑是很有现实意义的。本研究用量表法对3311名中学生的聚合思维的发展特点进行了研究。结果表明:中学生聚合思维处于稳定的上升趋势,尤其是初中阶段进步速度较快,而高中阶段聚合思维进入了平缓发展的阶段;其中逻辑性和概括性发展的总趋势基本相同;中学生在图形概括性、言语概括性和概括性以及聚合思维总分这四个维度上男生显著高于女生;有创造力培养特色的地区在除时间逻辑性维度外的其他维度上均明显地高于无创造力培养特色的地区。

A Study on the Development Characteristics of Convergent Thinking of Adolescents

The research was designed to aim at exploring the development characteristics of convergent thinking of adolescents among 3311student subjects from six middle schools,the results were as follows:(1)There was a stable ascend developmental trend of convergent thinking of adolescents,especially it advanced more rapidly in junior stage and then turn into a mild development trend in senior stage;(2)The chief developmental trend on the logicality and generalization of convergent thinking of adolescents was same basically;(3)A significant gender difference existed in the dimensionality of figure generalization,speech generalization,generalization and the total scores of convergent thinking;(4)The places with creativity training features was much higher obviously than the places without creativity training features on the all dimensionalities except time logicality.
