Investigating the Relationship Between Need Satisfaction and Creative Performance: Intrinsically Motivated Students Value Creativity
Original language description
Self-determination theory examines how personal and sociocultural factors affect an individual’s growth. When the basic psychological needs (i.e., autonomy, competence, and relatedness) are satisfied, intrinsic motivation arises, and one’s creativity manifests. However, it has not yet been investigated how the perceived value of creativity, a concept that underscores the importance of recognizing and appreciating creative endeavors, further shapes the interplay between need satisfaction and creative expression, bridging the gap between self-determination theory and expectancy-value theory. The objective of the present cross-sectional study was to investigate, in a sample of 360 university students, how need satisfaction in an educational context translates into intrinsic motivation and the perceived value of creativity, informing creative performance in four verbal creativity tasks. Structural equation modeling showed that the effect of need satisfaction on creative performance was completely statistically mediated by intrinsic motivation and the perceived value of creativity, while the effect of intrinsic motivation was only partially mediated by the perceived value of creativity. Although the results of this study are limited by its cross-sectional design, these findings indicate that both intrinsic motivation and the perceived value of creativity play an important role in the context of creative performance.
