ESSAY ON: Creativity And Mood: Research Review

Number of Pages 8

This research paper: 8 pages in length. Identifying the myriad triggers of depression has led researchers to examine specific components of human behavior that have not otherwise been considered as connected to mood disorder. While the association between creativity and depression has long been recognized, the notion of self-reflective rumination in this equation is also being examined for its role in major depressive disorders among creative people. Verhaeghen, Joormann and Khan's (2005) study entitled "Why We Sing the Blues: The Relation Between Self-Reflective Rumination, Mood, and Creativity" has provided a baseline understanding of how inward contemplation - perhaps rather than the creativity itself - is more likely the cause of depression. No additional sources cited.
