The Effectiveness of Role-Playing Games on Emotional and Cognitive Creativity Among Primary School Children
Author(s):
Abstract:
This study aimed to examine the effect of role-playing games on emotional and cognitive creativity among elementary school children from Isfahan. Thirty students with the age ranges of 7-12 years who had inclusion criteria were selected from four districts of Isfahan. The participants were randomly assigned into either control or experimental group. The role-playing games were conducted in group sessions and lasting 90 minutes per session (10 sessions). The effectiveness of games were assessed using the Torrance Test of Creativity (1974) and the Averill Emotional Creativity Inventory (1999). The results of multivariate analysis of variance indicated that role-playing games significantly increased cognitive creativity (fluency and originality) and emotional creativity (preparedness and novelty). The findings suggested that role-playing game is a preferred activity for promoting creativity in children.
