Creativity is recognized as comprising the most complex mental processes and as culminating in the greatest achievements of humans; yet questions of actual aspects and conditions of creative thought and action persist. The purpose of this study was to discover how creative professionals engage in ongoing creative production in their individual contexts. Seven research questions concerning the creative person's perception of the environment and its potential influence upon creative production anchored the study. Eight American composers at the Eastman School of Music described their creative activity. Demands of creative production and contextual influences that facilitate and inhibit work were identified and discussed.Subjects--Topical Terms:

520 $a Creativity is recognized as comprising the most complex mental processes and as culminating in the greatest achievements of humans; yet questions of actual aspects and conditions of creative thought and action persist. The purpose of this study was to discover how creative professionals engage in ongoing creative production in their individual contexts. Seven research questions concerning the creative person's perception of the environment and its potential influence upon creative production anchored the study. Eight American composers at the Eastman School of Music described their creative activity. Demands of creative production and contextual influences that facilitate and inhibit work were identified and discussed.
520 $a Four conditions emerged as essential to creative productivity: (1) ideas, (2) fascination with a medium, (3) competency, and (4) the right milieu. Ideas, fascination, and competence may be thought to reside principally within the adult individual, in terms of resources for the creative process. The right milieu is largely dependent upon environment. The organism-environment relationship of creative productivity suggests that an ecological model may be heuristic, and such a model is offered.
520 $a The subjects of this study have learned to participate in a successful organism-environment relationship. The manner in which they organize work and life, however, may be seen as responsive to supports and demands of family, peers, institutions, and society at large, as well as to supports and demands of the work process and other processes. Since the individual is interacting with the environment on many levels simultaneously, continuous influences from any component of the ecosystem may be facilitating or inhibiting.
520 $a It appears that anything that unites mind-body or replenishes energy of the creator facilitates creative productivity. Conversely, anything that divides mind-body or depletes energy of the creator appears to inhibit, and be potentially lethal to, creative productivity. Specific factors relative to creative productivity were identified and discussed.
