Summary

Culture – defined as pattern of symbolically encoded meaning that develops and is transmitted socially over time – impacts creativity. In this chapter, two main cultural perspectives on creativity are examined. First, the sociocultural psychology of creativity – an approach that is based on a view of interdependence between person and culture and that looks at creative action in its cultural context – is introduced and discussed. Second, the approach that focuses on comparing creative expression in two or more contexts is presented and the main findings from this field of research are reviewed. As an extension of the latter perspective, we review, at the end of the chapter, research that investigates the impact of exposure to multiple cultures and the use of cultural tools – including modern technologies – on creativity.
