“…This finding is parallel to the findings of some other studies. In studies carried out by Gedic (2013) and Pesout and Nietfeld (2021), it was found that the mean score of the male students was considerably higher than that of the female students. This finding is consistent with the results of a study by Abraham (2020), which indicates the important effect of gender on entrepreneurship.…”

“…For example, creative self-enhancement may be adaptive in the sense that it serves a self-protective function, which can be beneficial for self-esteem and personal well-being (Sedikides & Skowronski, 2000). It also, however, has negative consequences for individual creative performance (Pesout & Nietfeld, 2021). Additional research on the reasons for this negative association would be useful.…”

“…Recent empirical work suggests that overconfidence has a negative effect on creative tasks performance. Pesout and Nietfeld (2021) found that the overestimation of one’s creative ability was negatively related to creative performance on multiple creative thinking tasks. One reason those who overestimate their own creativity demonstrate lower performance is because they tend to engage in less idea exploration and elaboration.…”
Although mounting research has focused on the antecedents to accurate idea evaluation-an important step in the creative process-little attention has been given to the biases that may occur when individuals evaluate their own creativity. This study examines biased creative self-evaluation via the antecedents to creative self-enhancement, defined as an overly positive self-perception of one's own creative performance. We examine three individual differences as antecedents to creative self-enhancement-gender, creative self-concept, and trait hypercompetitiveness-and test our hypotheses in a unique competitive context using a pre-post research design. Results suggest that men and those who are relatively high in trait hypercompetitiveness are at higher risk of creative self-enhancement. We also find marginal support for a multiplicative effect: Males who are relatively high in hypercompetitiveness and relatively low in creative self-concept engage in the highest level of creative self-enhancement. Theoretical implications and opportunities for future research are discussed.
“…Environments can orient the developing person’s actions and interactions. For example, in the university environment, Kelley (1992) pointed out that followers with independent thinking are innovative and creative, and professors were found to claim that creative thinking and problem-solving abilities are key in both education and the workplace ( Pesout and Nietfeld, 2021 ). Drawing on the person-process-context-time model (PPCT) ( Bronfenbrenner, 1988 ) to understand how effective followership affects CP in higher education environments and to understand how the university environment affects employees who exhibit effective followership that affects CP, the role of CP was proposed and positively verified in this study.…”
Followership is an important but understudied domain. This study adopted a follower-centric perspective to examine the internal process by which followership affects creative performance via work autonomy and creative self-efficacy. The study employed a 3-wave survey of 341 employees of a Taiwanese university to achieve the research purpose. This study showed that effective followership (Time 1) is positively associated with employees’ work autonomy (Time 1) and creative self-efficacy (Time 2). Work autonomy and creative self-efficacy mediate the relationship between effective followership and creative performance (Time 3). This study’s empirical findings provide an improved way of measuring followership and broaden our understanding of how followership triggers intrinsic motivation to facilitate creative performance.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
