TI  - Test of Creative Imagery Abilities (TCIA): A Study of Adaptation into Turkish
AB  - The relationship between imagery ability and creative skill has been researched by many theorists, and it has been stated that individuals with high artistic skills, who are educated in art or who are creative individuals, have high imagery ability. For this reason, it is important to determine the imagery ability in the admission of art education students in undergraduate education, in identifying creative individuals and in revealing the cognitive skill levels that art education requires. This research was carried out in order to adapt the “Test of Creative Imagery Abilities (TCIA)”, developed by Polish researchers Jankowska and Karwowski into Turkish and to examine its psychometric properties. The original language is English and there are seven incomplete figures in the test. Each figure is evaluated in three dimensions (vividness, originality and transformativeness) in light of the guide handbook of the test. Both the test and the handbook were translated into Turkish by Turkish-English language experts and expert opinion was taken for Turkish-English compatibility. For linguistic equivalence, the original and Turkish forms were administered to 39 students two weeks apart, and the correlation between the two forms was calculated. In order to check the validity of the fit structure with the model of the test, a sample group of 300 undergraduate students participated in the research. The results of the reliability values and model fit criteria that emerged after the analyses revealed that the test is a valid and reliable measurement tool to measure the level of creative imagery.
