Summary
The chapter summarizes the role of interpersonal relationships in all forms of creativity: creative self-beliefs, abilities, activities, and achievements. We analyze the problem from two perspectives: processual and developmental. In the beginning, we characterize social emotions’ role in self-regulation of the creative process. Further, we describe the influence of significant others across lifespan. We present the meaning of parents and siblings for creativity in the early stage of life. Next, we move to the importance of romantic relationships and parenthood for adulthood creativity. Finally, we focus on the role of predecessors and successors in professional creativity with particular attention to their meaning for creative self-beliefs. In summary, we discuss the role of interpersonal relationships and social emotions through the journey from creative potential to creative behavior.
