Creative self-concept, intimately intertwined with the personality traits and plays a pivotal role in shaping individuals' behavioral tendencies. Personality traits are largely responsible to influence how people perceive and navigate their creative abilities and self-expression. Moreover, attitudes towards emotions are another key facet of one's psychological landscape, impacting their inclination to perceive, process, and manage emotional experiences. Keeping this view, the present research attempts to explore the interconnectedness of creative self-concept, personality traits, and attitudes towards emotions among young adults, as well as focuses on exploring the predictors of creative self concept. For this purpose participants consisted of 200 young adults with a mean age of 21.20 years. Statistical outcomes revealed that creative self concept is a significant positive correlate of openness, conscientiousness, extraversion, agreeableness, attitude towards sadness, and attitude towards fear. Additionally, stepwise multiple regression analysis confirmed that openness (R = 27%), neuroticism (R = 2%) and attitude towards sadness (R = 2%) emerged as the significant predictors of creative self concept. Findings from the current research concludes that for young adults to have self-perception in the realm of creativity, personality traits and attitude towards emotions are significant contributing factors. By recognizing and employing these connections, individuals, educators, counselors, and practitioners can contribute to the cultivation of creativity and personal development.
创造性自我概念与人格特质密切相关，在塑造个体的行为倾向方面起着关键作用。人格特质在很大程度上影响着人们如何感知和利用自己的创造力和自我表达能力。此外，对情绪的态度是个体心理状态的另一个关键方面，影响着他们感知、处理和管理情绪体验的倾向。基于这一观点，本研究试图探讨年轻成年人创造性自我概念、人格特质和对情绪的态度之间的相互关系，并重点探讨创造性自我概念的预测因素。为此，研究对象包括 200 名平均年龄为 21.20 岁的年轻成年人。统计结果表明，创造性自我概念与开放性、尽责性、外向性、宜人性、对悲伤的态度和对恐惧的态度呈显著正相关。此外，逐步多元回归分析证实，开放性（R²=27%）、神经质（R²=2%）和对悲伤的态度（R²=2%）是创造性自我概念的显著预测因素。本研究的结论是，对于年轻人来说，要在创造力领域有自我认知，人格特质和对情绪的态度是重要的影响因素。通过认识和利用这些联系，个人、教育者、顾问和从业者可以为培养创造力和个人发展做出贡献。
