This slideshow offers a few completed tests of the Torrance Test of Creative Thinking (TTCT). The Torrance Test of Creative Thinking (TTCT) purports to measure one's ability to build on ideas, have original ideas, to use a varied perspective like seeing an object from a different angle. Although the test is visual and based in drawing, it is not a measure of artistic ability.
The TTCT is a 90 minutes test and has three parts:
1. Thinking Creatively with Pictures measures creative thinking using three picture-based exercises to assess five mental characteristics: fluency, originality, elaboration, abstractness of titles, and resistance to closure.
2. The Figural TTCT contains abstract pictures and the examinee is requested to state what the image might be.
3. The Verbal TTCT: contains presents the examinee with a situation and gives the examinee the opportunity to ask questions, to improve products, and to “just suppose.”
The TTCT is normed for age 5+.
Points are deducted from the score for responses that are very common and points are awarded for originality.
