“…The test assumes that the earlier a subject observes human movement in the inkblots, the more imaginative the subject is. This test does not usually correlate with other measures of creative imagination (Baker, 1978;Barron, 1969;Joseph &Pillai, 1986;Sanders, Tedford,& Hardy, 1977).…”

The research literature is reviewed on the influence of TV on daydreaming and creative imagination. The hypotheses proposed to explain why TV might influence children's and adults' daydreaming and creative imagination positively (stimulation hypothesis) or negatively (reduction hypothesis) are discussed. The hypotheses that propose that existing daydreaming patterns result in changes in viewing behavior are also discussed. The weight of the available evidence favors the hypotheses that TV viewing stimulates daydreaming and reduces creative imagination, although decisive evidence of a causal relationship is lacking. The assumptions that underlie the hypotheses about TV's relationship to daydreaming and creative imagination are analyzed and whether these assumptions have been supported by research is established.

“…For example,` Shapira (1976) found that subjects expecting payment for success chose relatively easy puzzles to work on, whereas subjects expecting no payment chose much more challenging ones' (Amabile, 1996: 156). In a study using standard tests of creativity, subjects forced to participate for class credit scored lower than subjects who volunteered to take the same tests (Sanders, Tedford & Hardy, 1977, cited in Amabile, 1996.…”

In Scotland, assessment procedures tend to dominate the teaching and learning of music. Teachers are concerned that the recording and measuring of pupils' output against set criteria are achieved at the expense of engaging them in meaningful, creative experiences. The authors have proposed elsewhere (Byrne and Sheridan, 2000) that music educators should consider the use of Csikszentmihalyi's 'flow' model (Csikszentmihalyi, 1992) as a possible reflective tool for monitoring, regulating and assessing learning in music

“…Additional support for the claim that these observations comprise evidence (however unsystematic) of potential artifact may be garnered from a large related literature showing that volunteer subjects in experimental and social psychology are likely to differ from nonvolunteers on a variety of demographic, personality, cognitive, and even physiological variables (Cooperman, 1980;Doty & Silverthorne, 1975;Dumas, 1978;Joe et al, 1977;Masling et al, 1981;Rosenthal & Rosnow, 1975;Sanders et al, 1977). Unfortunately, only a handful of recent studies have even indirectly addressed this volunteer issue in a clinical context, and many of these are questionably useful analogue designs using normal or quasi-clinical subjects.…”

This article identifies and discusses some subtle experimental artifacts which may be generated by common procedures for the selection of patient-subjects in psychotherapy research. Clinical observations derived from a project investigating Time-Limited Dynamic Psychotherapy are used as examples of potential artifacts in both the recruitment and screening phases of the subject selection process. Some cautions, recommendations, and suggestions for research are offered.
