Catherine Cox“Youths who achieved high eminence were
characterized not only by high intellectual traits, but also by persistence of motive and effort, confidence in their abilities, and great strength or force of character”

Ego Psychology & Cox
-Creativity is not simply one type of behaviour-Does not originate on one level of dynamics(the
unconscious) -Does not express just one (or dominant) trait of
the individual-Does not have just one adaptive purpose
