The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between rewards, locus of control and ideational fluency. Forty-three preschool children were initially administered the Revised Peabody Picture Vocabulary Test and the Preschool and Primary Nowicki-Strickland Internal-External Scale. Based on a median split of the locus of control measure, the children were assigned to either a reward or non-reward condition for the second session. In session two the children were administered two ideational fluency tasks, unusual uses and pattern meanings, under the assigned condition. Four separate 2 (external, internal) x 2 (reward, nonreward) analysis of variance were conducted for four ideational fluency scores (popular, original, total fluency and flexibility scores). No significant effects were found in any of the analyses. However, mean differences suggest that rewards limit ideational fluency while internal locus of-control was related to originality. / Master of Science

The purpose of this study was to assess what effects mothers' childrearing attitudes, family income, and the age, sex, and IQ of the child have on original thinking in preschoolers. Sixty preschool children, from diverse family backgrounds, were administered the Multidimensional Stimulus Fluency Measure to assess original thinking, and a short version of the WPPSI was administered to assess IQ. The children's mothers completed the Parent as a Teacher Inventory during an interview to assess their parental childrearing attitudes in the areas of creativity, childrearing frustration, control, play, and teaching-learning. Multiple regression was used to determine the effect of nine independent variables on preschoolers' original thinking scores. No significant relationships were found with the exception of age contributing significantly to original scores. A multiple regression used to determine the effect of the independent variables (less IQ) have on IQ, found income to contribute significantly to IQ. These findings suggest that variables that are related to IQ are not appropriate for predicting original thinking in preschool children. / Master of Science
