The Creative Writer: An Examination Of Early Childhood Environment, Psychopathology, And Personality Traits, Cynthia I. Hagan Jan 2000

The Creative Writer: An Examination Of Early Childhood Environment, Psychopathology, And Personality Traits, Cynthia I. Hagan

Theses, Dissertations and Capstones

The early childhood environment, the pathology, and the personality traits of non-eminent creative writers were compared to those of non-creative artists. The stated issues were examined using a thirty-item, forced choice questionaire. The results indicated that the non-creative writer group experienced more early childhood trauma than did the non-creative artist group. The findings are congruent with previous research and supports the position that early childhood environment plays a significant role in the development of creativity.

Vice Advertising Under The Supreme Court's Commercial Speech Doctrine: The Shifting Central Hudson Analysis, Michael Hoefges, Milagros Rivera-Sanchez Jan 2000

Vice Advertising Under The Supreme Court's Commercial Speech Doctrine: The Shifting Central Hudson Analysis, Michael Hoefges, Milagros Rivera-Sanchez

UC Law SF Communications and Entertainment Journal
