7、单选题:
Read the following paragraph and identify the best one-sentence summary.  ‌‌‏Kutash and Northrop (2007) studied the comfort of family members in the ICU waiting room. They found that no matter the situation, waiting rooms are stressful for the patients and their families, and it is the nursing staff’s job to comfort both. From this emotional distress many family members judged the waiting room furniture as “uncomfortable” and only talked about it in a negative context. From this study we have learned that there is a direct relationship between a person’s emotional state and how that person perceives the physical state he or she is in, such as sitting in a chair. Is this relationship true in reverse as well? Can the way a person perceives his or her present physical state (such as sitting in a chair) affect his or her emotional state? This is the question that the present study sought to answer.‌
选项:
A: Kutash and Northrup found that anxious people in intensive care waiting rooms tend to dislike the chairs in the waiting room and describe them as “uncomfortable.”
B: The uncomfortable furniture in intensive care waiting rooms makes anxious people even more anxious.
C: This paragraph introduces a study that the authors conducted.
D: Basing their work on the results of a previous study, Baker, Beacker, and Young propose to examine whether a person’s perceived physical comfort can have an impact on their anxiety levels.

Connections between curiosity, flow and creativity

 

Abstract

Previous research has shown that greater curiosity, the desire to know, is associated with more creativity, which entails generating new or useful ideas or products. The intense concentration and absorption that characterizes the phenomenon of flow may connect curiosity with creativity. The present study investigated the connections between three dimensions of curiosity, namely joyous exploration-related curiosity, knowledge-deprivation sensitivity, and stress tolerance. Fifty-seven participants, with a mean age of 35, engaged in the novel task of designing a water conservation program. Participants judged their experience of designing the program on scales that assessed their curiosity and flow during the activity. Two raters independently coded each participant's program description on creativity, and the mean of the two ratings produced the creativity score for that participant. Higher joyous exploration curiosity, knowledge-deprivation sensitivity, and tolerance of stress were all associated with more flow. More experience of flow, as judged by participants after engaging in the activity, was significantly associated with greater creativity. Even though the direct relationships between curiosity and creativity did not reach statistical significance, flow linked each of the dimensions of curiosity with creativity. These findings may provide a basis for programs intended to increase flow or creativity.

Keywords: Creativity, Curiosity, Flow

 

1. Introduction

Curiosity, the desire to know, is a motivating characteristic (Litman, 2005; Loewenstein, 1994). Curiosity consists of several related dimensions (Kashdan et al., 2018), including desiring exploration for its own sake (Kashdan et al., 2018; Litman, 2005), deprivation sensitivity or wanting to decrease gaps in knowledge (Litman, 2005; Loewenstein, 1994) and stress tolerance when faced with novelty (Kashdan et al., 2018).

Creativity involves generating new and useful ideas or products (Sternberg, 2006). According to the process model of creativity (Mumford & McIntosh, 2017) information gathering precedes creativity, and some research (Kashdan & Steger, 2007) supports this pro- position. Curiosity may prompt that information gathering.

Several studies have found associations between higher curiosity and greater creativity (Celik, Storme, Davila, & Myszkowski, 2016; Hardy, Ness, & Mecca, 2017; Peljko, Jeraj, Săvoiu, & Marič, 2016; Puente-Díaz & Cavazos-Arroyo, 2017). Other variables linking curiosity to greater creativity remain to be investigated. The phenomena of flow may be a path between curiosity and creativity. Flow is characterized by intense concentration and absorption (Csikszentmihalyi, 2014). Kashdan et al. (2009) proposed that high levels of curiosity and the engagement associated with such high levels of curiosity may give rise to flow. Flow gives rise to optimal performance of a task (Csikszentmihalyi, 2014). According to Csikszentmihalyi's (1997) theory of creativity, flow is a person aspect of the generation of creative ideas and products, and some research supports the link between flow and creativity (Csikszentmihalyi, 1997). For example, Zubair and Kamal (2015) found that flow among employees was associated with their work-related creativity. Byrne, MacDonald, and Carlton (2003) found that higher levels of flow were associated with more creative musical compositions.

 

1.1  Aim of Study

The objective of the study was to investigate whether flow may link curiosity with creativity. The hypotheses were that:

1. The dimensions of joyous exploration curiosity, knowledge-deprivation sensitivity curiosity, and stress tolerance in relation to curiosity would be associated with more flow during a novel activity, as judged by participants after engaging in the activity.

2. The dimensions of joyous exploration curiosity, knowledge-deprivation sensitivity curiosity, and novelty tolerance in relation to curiosity would be associated with more creativity.

3. Greater   flow   experienced   during   the   activity, as   judged by participants after engaging in the activity, would be associated with greater creativity.
