Structural equation modeling of determining factors in musical creativity: an extended model based on Componential Theory of Creativity.
Article in BMC psychology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundThis study aims to evaluate the critical effect factors on musical creativity systematically. Uncovering the determinants of musical creativity is significant to promoting music education and creative development.
methodsThis study used structural equation modeling analysis to construct a conceptual framework containing ten explanatory variables based on the Componential Theory of Creativity. The data of 964 university students were analyzed using partial least squares structural equation modeling for empirical testing.
resultsThe empirical findings show that creative thinking and combinatorial thinking have the most significant impact on musical creativity; combinatorial thinking and musical improvisation ability play a key mediating role between expertise and musical creativity; Musical aesthetic ability and music use motivations, as external constructs, have a significant impact on intrinsic motivation and expertise.
conclusionsThis study reveals the combined influence of multiple cognitive and motivational factors on musical creativity, enriches the theoretical framework of musical creativity, and provides new perspectives and methods for music education practice, aiming to help educators cultivate students' musical creativity more comprehensively and promote the innovative development of higher education.
