摘要

This study aims to explore the impact of psychological richness on creativity and its underlying mechanisms. Study 1 employed a two-wave longitudinal survey with a three-month interval among 201 college students, providing preliminary evidence for the relationship between psychological richness and creativity. Studies 2 and 3 manipulated psychological richness using a visual scenario priming task and a travel recall paradigm, respectively, to examine the sequential mediating roles of cognitive flexibility and creative self-efficacy. The results indicated that (1) psychological richness significantly and positively predicted creativity, and (2) cognitive flexibility and creative self-efficacy functioned as partial and sequential mediators in this relationship. This study reveals the underlying mechanisms linking psychological richness to creativity and offers a novel perspective for enhancing individual creativity.
