Summary
Diversifying experiences, defined as “unusual and unexpected events or situations that push people outside the realm of normality”, include a wide range of experiences, both negative and positive, which reflect difference and uncertainty. We argue that successfully managing diversifying experiences at the individual level may foster creativity. Thus, we will use the diversifying experiences and creativity framework to present empirical evidence and theoretical arguments that illustrate the link between managing uncertainty/difference and creativity. First, we will present empirical evidence for the link between four broad categories of diversifying experiences and creativity: psychopathology, adversity, enrichment, and diversity. Second, we will discuss the possible mechanism of managing such experiences (at the individual level) in a way that fosters creativity. Third, we will discuss future directions.
