Thesis (Ph.D.)--University of Rochester, 2003.

Inspiration was conceptualized herein as a domain-free construct characterized by evocation, motivation, and transcendence. The purpose of this research was to validate this tripartite conceptualization. Two empirical strategies were employed. The first was to demonstrate that the state of inspiration differs from two reference states---baseline experience and positive activation---in the manner predicted by the conceptualization. The second strategy was to examine distinct processes through which inspiration and positive activation become manifest.

520 $a Inspiration was conceptualized herein as a domain-free construct characterized by evocation, motivation, and transcendence. The purpose of this research was to validate this tripartite conceptualization. Two empirical strategies were employed. The first was to demonstrate that the state of inspiration differs from two reference states---baseline experience and positive activation---in the manner predicted by the conceptualization. The second strategy was to examine distinct processes through which inspiration and positive activation become manifest.
520 $a In Studies 1--3, participants (N = 143, 148, and 221, respectively) recalled an experience of inspiration and completed dependent measures with respect to the recalled experience. For comparison, participants also completed each measure with respect to their general, baseline experiences (Studies 1 and 2) or with respect to an experience of positive activation (Study 3). As hypothesized, Studies 1 and 2 found that inspiration, relative to baseline, involves enhancement of variables related to evocation (e.g., passive representations of self), motivation (e.g., task-involvement), and transcendence (e.g., spirituality). Also as hypothesized, Study 3 found that inspiration, relative to positive activation, involves enhanced evocation and transcendence but comparable motivation. Study 4 (N = 105) replicated these results using a between-subjects daily diary methodology.
520 $a Study 4 also examined antecedents of inspiration and positive activation. As hypothesized, dispositional openness was a stronger predictor of daily inspiration than of daily positive activation, whereas approach temperament was a stronger predictor of positive activation than of inspiration. Also, daily insight was a stronger predictor of inspiration than of positive activation, whereas daily reward salience was a stronger predictor of positive activation than of inspiration. The differential effects of insight and reward salience were found to mediate the differential effects of dispositional openness and approach temperament.
520 $a These findings support the tripartite conceptualization and attest to the discriminant validity of the inspiration construct. Inspiration is a motivational state for which one does not feel responsible and in which one becomes oriented toward new or better possibilities. Inspiration is triggered by an insight or "revelation" and is most likely to occur among individuals who are open or receptive to the beauty and goodness in their midst.
