Über diesen Titel

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Mark A. Runco is currently the E. Paul Torrance Professor of Creativity Studies at the University of Georgia, Athens, USA. Mark earned his PhD in Cognitive Psychology from the Claremont Graduate School, USA. He earned tenure first at the University of Hawaii, Hilo, and then at California State University, Fullerton, and then, in 2008, at the University of Georgia, Athens. At that time he accepted the position of Torrance Professor at UGA. He was Director of the Torrance Creativity Center from 2008-2010. Dr. Runco has been Editor of the Creativity Research Journal since 1989 and is a Past President of Division 10 (Psychology, Art, Creativity, and Aesthetics) of the American Psychological Association. He co-edited two editions of the Encyclopedia of Creativity (1999, 2011). Probably for this reason he has, in the past two years, been quoted by the Wall Street Journal, Newsweek (cover story), US News and World Report, Oprah, Women's Health, and NPR. His textbook, Creativity: Theories, themes, and issues (Academic Press) has been translated into six languages. His new book, The New Science of Creativity, is due out in the Spring (Taylor & Francis). He is President of Creativity Testing Services, LLC (creativitytestingservices.com), which is the publisher of the extensive "rCAB" (Runco Creativity Assessment Battery). The "r" in rCAB is silent. Or perhaps it is trying to escape.
