Psychological Aspects of Decision Making in Creative Art Process

(in English) The thesis explores decision making in creative artistic process in adults. The aim of this study is to determine what and how the adults reflect during an art activity and its aftermath, as well as what other phenomena occur in the creative process. The theoretical part is divided into four parts. The first section deals with decision making - the terminology and the three theories of intuitive decision making. The second part presents basic knowledge about creativity. The third part deals with the creative process and its models. The fourth one describes two methods used in the research. The empirical part consists of qualitative and quantitative research. The qualitative research was conducted using a semi-structured interview with 14 adults, who drew on stimulus matrix - scribbling, which was created for this purpose. The objective of the qualitative research was to map the decision making in the given activity. The purpose of the quantitative research was to compare the used scribbling method with the Torrance Figural Test of Creative Thinking. The results of both surveys are described in detail and discussed with the available literature. The conclusion of the thesis offers recommendations on the use of the collected data and possible further research on this topic. Klíčová slova..
