What may be an innocent dream about a father-like figure, or a heroic figure, turns into something of a sexual nature when inserting Freud's…

The word creativity as it is understood by modern sciences was brought up by Guilford, an expert in psychometrics, the measurement of mind, in 1950 when he published his paper “creativity.” To Guilford, creativity represented a power; a measurable psychological tendency to behave the human being is capable of.
