New book chapter: Creative success in collaboration: A sociocultural perspective

‍

Associate Professor II Vlad Gleavenu and Senior Researcher Ingunn Johanne Ness, both from SLATE, and  Ludvig Johan Torp Rasmussen have published a chapter on how creative success in collaboration can be achieved in teams in the new publication Creative Success in Teams, edited by Alexander S. McKay, Roni Reiter-Palmon, and James C. Kaufman. In their chapter they propose a sociocultural perspective on the question of creative success in groups. In doing so, they challenge old information processing models of creative groupwork and contest their emphasis on individuals at the expense of actual interactions, and on end outcomes rather than processes, context, and development. They argue that one of the biggest pitfalls of cognitive models of group creativity rests on the fact that they often try to neatly separate inputs, processes, and outputs.
