摘要

本研究探索如何評量香港中小學教師的發散思維，在384名教師完成了「圖形刺激測驗」後，發現絕大部分的教師在畫圖時均未能跳出每幅共九格的圖畫之外，表明大多數教師缺乏創造力中的發散思維。本研究結果還顯示，另類學校的老師在獨創力項目上的表現明顯較普通中學老師為佳，這一差異可能是由於兩者的教育工作性質和方式不同所導致。

Abstract

The present study explores the divergent thinking of primary and secondary school teachers in Hong Kong. A picture completion exercise was used to examine a sample of 384 teachers. The results showed that most teachers in the sample were unable to think beyond the nine-squared box frame, implying that they were generally limited in divergent thinking. The results also showed that teachers from the non-standard schools scored significantly higher on the originality sub-scale of divergent thinking than teachers from the regular schools.
