A comprehensive approach to study the resting-state brain network related to creative potential

Studies related to creativity generally investigate cognition and brain functioning linked creative achievement. However, this approach does not allow characterization of potential. To better define potential, we studied cognitive function processes the associated resting functional connectivity. Therefore, in pilot study, constructed a model via structural equation modeling assuming an influence working memory (WM) analytical thinking on assessed by Torrance Tests Creative Thinking. On basis model, differentiated two groups with different levels their score. We identified one group as high-creative potential group, positive correlation between WM negative creativity. The other was low-creative no Then, examined connectivity at rest found that had increased attentional network (AN) default-mode (DMN) decreased salience (SN). Our findings highlight involvement AN. We, therefore, which is consistent theories suggesting underpinned processes.
