Abstract

This study aims to determine whether aesthetic ability and self-worth dually mediate in the relationship between creative personality and creativity among Chinese design college students. Data were collected through a survey targeting 500 college students purposively sampled from a design major university in Guangdong, China. The collected data was analyzed using SPSS PC+ Win ver. 25.0 and SPSS PROCESS macro ver. 4.2. The statistical methods applied were frequency analysis, reliability analysis, correlation analysis, and dual mediation effect analysis. The conclusion of the study is as follows. First, creative personality, aesthetic ability, self-worth, and creativity all showed significant positive correlations. Second, college students' aesthetic ability and self-worth double-mediated in the relationship between creative personality and creativity. Based on these results, this study proposed a plan to utilize not only creative personality but also aesthetic ability and self-worth to enhance the creativity of college students.
