| Abstract : Universiti Pendidikan Sultan Idris |
| As Malaysia’s national curriculum appeared to promote creative subjects instead of enhanced by itself, this study aimed to study the effect of emotions and genders toward creativity among undergraduate student in Universiti Pendidikan Sultan Idris (UPSI). This study was conducted through experimental method. This between-subject experimental study was conducted by watching a short video and complete a set of questionnaire to the participants. A total of 32 participants with equal gender were participated in the experiment through convenience sampling. Instruments used were the PANAS Questionnaire and Alternative Uses Task (AUT). Two types of videos to give intended effect of positive and negative emotions were used. Manipulation check was conducted before the actual study to test the instruments. Research hypotheses were tested by the independent T-test analyses. Results showed that there was no significant difference between both emotions and genders respectively toward creativity. Lastly, thorough discussions on the effect of emotions and genders among these variables toward creativity were presented in this paper. Some implication, limitation and recommendation for future study were discussed.
