| Summary: | There have been studies in the past that have shown creativity to be related with psychological disorders. This study focuses on creativity as an end goal of dysphoria, together with rumination and coping as predictors of creativity using a mixed methods approach for triangulation of the data. The researchers have prepared both an interview guide and a survey to be handed out to participants. The results of the study showed that dysphoria and creativity have a weak positive correlation. Dysphoria and coping were also found to be significant predictors of creativity while rumination was not a significant predictor. Creativity was manifested through music, declamation and visual arts. Creativity was achieved through the need for inspiration, relief, form of escape and mood enhancer. |
