Abstract

This study investigates the correlation between gender and psychological characteristics, namely creativity, empathy, and emotional intelligence (EI), among young adults. While the mean score in Creative Achievement suggests a slight propensity for males to demonstrate higher levels of creativity, no statistically significant difference is observed. However, cultural norms may influence gender-specific creativity. Females exhibit higher levels of empathy, consistent with previous studies, while a small disparity in EI scores suggests potentially higher emotional intelligence among females. These findings underscore the necessity for tailored interventions to address gender inequities and promote comprehensive development. Moreover, a positive correlation between empathy and EI, and a negative correlation between creative achievement and EI, highlight the complex interplay of these traits. Understanding these dynamics can inform inclusive environments and support systems for all genders.
