“…The lack of a relationship between mothers' verbal creativity and children's verbal creativity suggests that verbal creativity may not be transfer and may be more open to environmental effects. Alptekin et al (2021) concluded in their study that children's social problem-solving skills significantly predicted their verbal creativity. Likewise, the present study also supports the conclusion that the environmental factors and social milieu are more effective than transfer in the development of verbal creativity.…”

Torrence Creativity Test Verbal and Formal Form was used to measure the creativity of children and mothers. Tests were administered to children and mothers separately. Data were evaluated by correlation and regression analysis. As a result of the evaluations, a significant correlation was found with the creativity total scores of the mothers and the creativity total score of the children, the abstractness of the titles and the originality sub-dimensions. It was determined that maternal creativity total score predicted child creativity total score, abstractness of child titles and child originality sub-dimensions positively and significantly. A significant correlation was found between mothers' figurative creativity, abstractness of titles sub-dimension scores and children's figural creativity originality sub-dimension scores. A positive and significant correlation was determined between the mothers' figural fluency sub-dimension scores and the abstractness of children's titles, child fluency, child originality and child figural creativity total scores. It was observed that the formal fluency sub-dimension scores of the mothers positively predicted the total scores of the children's formal creativity.
