The relationship of creativity and intelligence to self‐concept was examined in Israeli children (N = 159) of superior intelligence (mean WISC IQ = 140) across a wide age range (Grades 4–8). The instruments were the Wallach & Kogan Creativity battery, a group intelligence test and the Tennessee Self‐Concept Scale. It was concluded that for children of superior intelligence, differences in creativity level were far more implicated in personal‐social adjustment than were differences in intelligence level.
