For data collection questionnaires of Grey - Wilson' behavioral inhibition / activation system (GWPQ), Elliot and McGregor' achievement goals questionnaire (2001), questionnaire of creative thinking by Peter Honey were used. The data were analyzed using path analysis.
Results: The results showed that there was positive correlation between BAS and creative thinking (p>0.05). And there was negative correlation between BIS and behavioral inhibition system. And so, the results indicated that behavioral activation system indirectly predicted creative thinking.
Conclution:Conclusions implied that to foster creative students, behavioral inhibition / activation system and achievement goals should be respect as important predictor of creative thinking.
