Old Test, New Tricks: Using Large Language Models to Generate New Divergent Thinking Test Items

2026-07-07

Abstract excerpt

<p>Automated item generation (AIG) using large language models (LLMs) is emerging as a promising solution for scalable creativity assessments, yet the potential of AIG to create psychometrically rigorous creativity items has thus far received little attention. In the present study, we evaluated the psychometric properties of LLM-generated items for the classic Consequences task of divergent thinking, comparing the...
