Abstract: The general aim of this study was to determine what relationships, if any, exist between verbal, figural and motor creativity of black culturally deprived children. More specifically, the goal of this study was realized by investigating the tenability of the null hypotheses that state that significant relationships do not exist between 1) the correlation coefficients for girls among verbal, figural and motor creativity, 2) the correlation coefficients for boys among verbal, figural and motor creativity, 3) the correlation coefficients for the total population among verbal, figural and motor creativity, 4) the regression coefficients for girls among motor creativity and a combination of other creativity variables, 5) the regression coefficients for boys among motor creativity and a combination of other creativity variables, and 6) the regression coefficients for the total population among motor creativity and a combination of other creativity variables. Additionally, the goal of this study was realized by investigating the tenability of the null hypothesis that states significant differences between the mean of boys and girls on verbal creativity, figural creativity and motor creativity do not exist.
