Motivation of creativity at university contextThe study investigated the degree to which different aspects related to creativity have been fostered by university teachers, as well as university students' evaluation of their own level of creativity, their teachers' level and their colleagues' level of creativity. Four hundred and twenty eight university students answered an inventory of incentive of creativity in the university context. They also evaluated their own level of creativity, and their teachers' and colleagues' level of creativity. The results called attention to the low degree of incentive to different aspects of creativity by university teachers. Students judged themselves and their colleagues as significantly more creative than their teachers. The results suggest the need of more atention to the development of creativity in the university context.
