Creativity Test
Word-link puzzles plus your creative habits.
What it measures
Associative thinking — finding the one word that links three others — plus self-rated idea generation, curiosity and creative habits.
How it works
- Part 1: 12 word puzzles. Each shows three words; type one word that links them.
- Part 2: 12 statements about your creative habits.
- About 7 minutes. Please do not search for the answers — the puzzles only work if you solve them in your head.
- The English and Chinese versions use different puzzles, so scores are not directly comparable across languages.
About your score
You get a word-link score out of 12 and a 0–100 score for each of three creative traits. These describe your own answers; percentiles will be added once enough people have taken the test.
