O presente estudo teve como objetivo investigar a relação entre a criatividade, particularmente o pensamento divergente, e a reserva cognitiva (RC), numa amostra de pessoas com idade avançada e sem defeito cognitivo. 53 participantes provenientes da comunidade cumpriram os critérios de inclusão e foram avaliados através da Prova de Criatividade (ProCriativ) e do Questionário de Reserva Cognitiva (QRC). A análise correlacional revelou que os índices de fluência e flexibilidade da ProCriativ estavam positiva e significativamente correlacionados com o QRC. Contudo, segundo a análise de regressão, a flexibilidade foi o único preditor da RC. Estes resultados estão em conformidade com estudos prévios que encontraram uma clara associação entre a criatividade e a RC. Adicionalmente, em outros estudos a fluência e a originalidade foram também preditores dos indicadores de RC. Especula-se que a criatividade possa representar outro indicador da RC. Investigação adicional é necessária para corroborar estes resultados.
The present study aims to investigate the relationship between creativity, particularly divergent thinking, and cognitive reserve (CR), in a sample of older adults without cognitive impairment. 53 community-dwelling subjects met the inclusion criteria and were submitted to the Creativity Test (ProCriativ) and the Cognitive Reserve Questionnaire (CRQ). The correlational analysis revealed that ProCriativ's fluency and flexibility indexes were positively and significantly correlated with the CRQ. However, according to the backward stepwise regression analysis, only flexibility was a significant predictor of CRQ. Our results are in line with former studies that found a clear association between creativity and CR. Additionally, in other studies fluency and originality were also predictors of CR proxies besides flexibility. It is speculated that creativity could represent another indicator of CR. Further investigation is needed to corroborate the previous findings.
