Özet
The purpose of this study is to investigate scientific creativity of eighth grade gifted students. Participants of the study included purposefully selected 20 eighth grade gifted students. They were applied WISC-R and they scored higher than 120 in order to be identified as gifted. After their selection, Scientific Creativity Test was applied to them. Therefore their scores were analyzed in terms of four aspects of creativity; fluency, flexibility, originality and elaboration. The mean of total scores (9.51) of the participants showed that scientific creativity levels of the participants were at average level but their scores on originality and elaboration factors were not enough to produce creative ideas. These findings are evidence for need of improving two factors of scientific creativity.
