“…This study has several theoretical contributions. First, the main contribution is to the literature on creativity, where an amount of research argued that creativity is influenced by personality, Big Five factors, inspiration, training and learning, collaboration, information and communication technologies and psychology ( Stolaki and Economides, 2018 ; Huang, 2019 ; Lai et al, 2019 ; Liu et al, 2020 ; Hsia et al, 2021 ; Rahimi and Shute, 2021 ; Roth et al, 2021 ), but little attention is paid to the impact of emotions ( Falavarjani and Yeh, 2018 ). This study is one of the cutting-edge research to investigate how students in music education can deal with creativity to influence their performance.…”

“…Students’ creativity is a kind of ability with which the individual can function flexible, unique, progressive characteristics in the supportive environment through the process of thinking to produce divergent views, endow things unique, novel meaning, and gain the results not only make themselves, but also make others satisfied. For students majoring in music, their creativity is of great value to their own creation, especially improvisation ( Falavarjani and Yeh, 2018 ). And individual creativity is diverse and variable, and should not be limited to the innovation idea itself, but should also include the generation of innovative ideas, content, implementation, promotion and development to ensure that innovative ideas can be implemented effectively in the music creation ( Torrance and Myers, 1970 ; Zhou and George, 2001 ; Rossetto and Chapple, 2019 ).…”

Artificial intelligence (AI) era challenges the use and functions of emotion in college students and the students’ college life is often experienced as an emotional rollercoaster, negative and positive emotion can affect the emotional outcomes, but we know very little about how students can ride it most effectively to increase their creativity. We introduce frustration tolerance as a mediator and emotion regulation as a moderator to investigate the mechanism of creativity improvement under negative emotion. Drawing on a sample of 283 students from professional music colleges or music major in normal universities, we find that negative emotion are generally associated with a lower creativity, while frustration tolerance can mediate the relationship between negative emotion and creativity, but these effects depend on the emotion regulation. Cognitive reappraisal exerts a negative effect on the relationship between negative emotion and creativity, while expressive suppression has the opposite effect. Our study contributes to the literatures on student’s emotions and creativity in music education and to the emotion regulation literature.

“…A few studies have assessed acculturation in multicultural settings. Falavarjani and Yeh (2018) measured acculturation among Iranian immigrants in Malaysia using the Vancouver Index Acculturation scale (VIA) [17]. Cheung-Bluden and Juang (2008) used the Acculturation Scale for Vietnamese Adolescents (ASVA), developed by Nguyen et al (1999) to examine if acculturation towards Chinese (majority) culture or western (minority) culture among ethnic Chinese girls from a school located on Hong Kong Island, which has a longer colonial history than other districts in Hong Kong [18,19].…”

The Short Acculturation Scale (SAS) has been widely used for assessing the level of the acculturation of migrants in Western countries. However, the validity of SAS for use in cosmopolitan settings without a single prevailing culture is unclear. We examined the validity and reliability of a version of the SAS adapted to a multi-ethnic Asian society. We used cross-sectional data from 12,610 Singaporean citizens and permanent residents, aged 21–75 years, of Chinese, Malay, and Indian ethnicity. Our version used 11 items, with 5 questions on language use, 3 on media use, and 3 on ethnic social relations, to measure acculturation. Our version of the SAS had good internal consistency. The three-factor CFA model had a good fit to our data. The results from the multiple group CFA supported metric invariance and partial scalar invariance across the three ethnic groups. The total score was positively correlated with generation in Singapore and the number of languages spoken. Among first generation immigrants, country of origin, but not the duration of residence was significantly associated with the acculturation score. Our three-factor version of the SAS is a reliable and valid tool for measuring acculturation in Singapore residents. These findings indicate that adapted SAS can be used to assess acculturation in multicultural settings.

“…Em experiências de intercâmbio cultural, vivenciadas por meio da aculturação, a criatividade pode ser nutrida (Bultseva & Lebedeva 2019;Cho & Morris, 2015;Falavarjani & Yeh, 2018;Goclowska & Crisp, 2014). A duração da experiência internacional, por exemplo, está relacionada ao êxito criativo.…”

“…Ademais, a qualidade do processo de aculturação também está relacionada ao desenvolvimento da criatividade. Estudantes iranianos que viviam na Malásia e adotaram a integração ou marginalização bicultural apresentaram melhores soluções criativas em comparação com indivíduos que adotaram uma identidade monocultural, como a assimilação ou a separação (Falavarjani & Yeh, 2018).…”

A criatividade é um fenômeno multidimensional que envolve elementos individuais e ambientais. O ambiente cultural no qual o indivíduo se insere e a forma como ele se acultura podem influenciar seu desempenho criativo. Neste estudo foram investigadas criatividade, aculturação e vivência internacional de jovens multiculturais. Participaram 39 crianças e adolescentes, que já haviam vivido em pelo menos dois países, sendo 22 (56%) do gênero feminino e 17 (44%) masculino, com idade entre 6 e 15 anos (M= 11,07, DP= 2,56), além de seus responsáveis (23 mães, sete pais e nove casais). Empregou-se três instrumentos: Curta Escala de Aculturação, Teste de Criatividade Figural Infantil e questionário sobre a experiência em outras culturas. Os multiculturais obtiveram índice de criatividade superior à média, impulsionado pelos fatores de Emotividade e Aspectos Cognitivos. A maioria teve altos índices de aculturação e adotou estratégia aculturativa de integração. Foram mais criativos os participantes com altos índices de aculturação e que haviam regressado ao país de origem após a experiência no exterior. Crianças e adolescentes que haviam vivido em mais de quatro países tiveram melhor aculturação. A escola, a família, os relacionamentos sociais e o idioma foram os aspectos mais indicados como facilitadores na vivência internacional.
