Abstract Among all creations of God living on this planet, Man is the most intelligent, innovative and creative.  Imbued with these qualities, Man was able to plan, create and recreate new things using the resources available in the environment. Man’s position as God’s best creation and as the recipient of the creative intelligence from his Creator has further advanced him in mastering science and technology. As a result of his advancement in knowledge and science in one way or another has ushered Man into creating great civilizations. While the discussion goes on as to whether Man’s creativity is an inborn or a learned behaviour, this paper intends to explore and analyze some of the existing concepts of human creativity found in Western and Islamic psychologies. Very particularly, the researchers would like to examine the concept of creativity put forward by Freudian Psychoanalysis, Behaviorists, Humanistic and Islamic psychologies. It is expected that the findings of this research can motivate mankind to be more dynamic and productive in bringing the much needed positive change to the present world conditions.   Keywords: Man, Creativity, Contrastive Analysis, Western Psychology, Islamic Psychology.   Abstrak Di antara semua ciptaan Tuhan yang hidup di planet ini, Manusia adalah yang paling pintar, inovatif dan kreatif. Dengan dianugerahi dengan semua kelebihan ini, Manusia dapat merancang, mencipta dan mencipta semula benda baharu dengan menggunakan sumber-sumber yang terdapat di alam sekitar. Kedudukan manusia sebagai makhluk Allah yang terbaik  dan sebagai penerima kecerdasan kreatif daripada Penciptanya telah memberi keupayaan kepadanya untuk semakin maju dalam menguasai sains dan teknologi. Hasil kemajuan dalam ilmu pengetahuan dan sains telah mendorong manusia untuk mewujudkan tamadun yang gilang-gemilang. Dalam suasana perbincangan yang berlansung dewasa ini mengenai; samada kreativiti manusia adalah suatu sifat pembawaan sejak lahir atau suatu yang dapat dipelajari, kajian ini ingin  menoraka konsep kreativiti manusia yang telah diutarakan oleh psikologi Barat dan Islam. Khususnya para penyelidik kajian ini ingin mendalami konsep kreativiti yang telah dikemukakan oleh aliran Freudian Psikoanalisis, Behaviorism, Humanistik psikologi dan psikologi Islam. Diharapkan penemuan penyelidikan ini dapat memotivasi umat manusia agar lebih dinamik dan produktif dalam membawa perubahan positif yang sangat diperlukan untuk merubah keadaan dunia sekarang ini.   Kata Kunci: Manusia, Kreativiti, Analisis Kontrastif, Psikologi Barat, Psikologi Islam.

Abstract Background The COVID-19 pandemic is a crisis unprecedented in its size and scope. Yet studies of resilience suggest most individuals will successfully negotiate this challenge and some may even experience growth and positive change. Some evidence suggests that the capacity to enact positive change in the face of adversity may be shaped by early life experiences. Methods In a subset of 374 participants (57% female, mean age = 29 years) in the Study of Early Child Care and Youth Development (SECCYD), a longitudinal, birth cohort, prospective models were tested to determine whether early life adversities in family and neighborhood contexts predict positive change events in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Childhood family and neighborhood contexts were assessed using a combination of self-report questionnaires and US Census data. Adulthood positive change events (e.g., becoming more appreciative of things usually taken for granted) were assessed using the Epidemic-Pandemic Impacts Inventory (EPII). Results In regression analyses, neighborhood disadvantage in childhood, measured both by objective and subjective assessments, predicted a higher number of positive change events in response to the COVID-19 pandemic (β = .18, p = .004 and β = .15, p = .006, respectively). Examination of the positive change event subscales showed neighborhood disadvantage in childhood predicted increases in events related to ‘perspective taking and charitable giving’ (β = .20, p = .022 and β = .17, p = .002, respectively) and improved ‘social relationships’ (β = .18, p = .004 and β = .13, p = .020, respectively), but not to positive ‘health behaviors’ (ps > .05). All associations were independent of sociodemographic factors and childhood family dysfunction. Conclusions Findings suggest that neighborhood disadvantage in childhood may shape prosocial responses to stress in adulthood, potentially through early life adaptions to stress that are protective when facing adversity. There are several notable implications of the study findings. Although adversity in early life has clear negative impacts, it is possible that adversity experiences may also provide opportunities to develop adaptive strategies that foster resilience and growth when facing stress. Intervention efforts should consider leveraging such stress-adapted strengths to reduce the many negative impacts of early life adversity.
