摘要： There are important research issues surrounding the best methods for evaluating creativity of animation. This study proposed an approach to evaluate the creativity of short animation by adopting Linkography. This article reported the results of two experiments performed to test this approach. In study 1, participants identified as impressive a set of images drawn from a short animation. These images then represented moves on Linkography. Next, the interrelations between images were recognized as links on Linkography. The creativity of a short animation was determined by entropy, which was calculated by links. Results of study 1 revealed that entropy of Linkography had a high correlation (.86) with the evaluation scores obtained through a questionnaire, thus confirming the adequacy of using Linkography as a tool in evaluating the creativity of short animation. In study 2, an experiment was conducted to adjust entropy calculation. The study results showed that there existed alternatives for adjusting this calculation to reflect better the irregularity of ideas, which serves as an indicator of creativity. Further studies are needed to test the generalization of the present findings. 出版者： Philadelphia: Taylor & Francis Group 出版日期： 2013-01-01 出處： Creativity research journal, 2013-01, Vol.25 (1), p.33-37 資源來源： Taylor & Francis Journals Auto-Holdings Collection 版權： Copyright Taylor & Francis Group, LLC 2013 版權： Copyright Routledge 2013 識別號： ISSN: 1040-0419 識別號： EISSN: 1532-6934 識別號： DOI: 10.1080/10400419.2013.752182
