Summary, in English

Two empirical investigations of the creative personality, including a gender perspective, are described. In one of them the participants were school children and in the other the group consisted mainly of university students. Creativity is here conceived within a particular theoretical frame which is particularly focussing on individual differences in the perceptual process. Gender was studied from two angles. The youngsters were investigated for gender differences in a semi-projective test of defense mechanisms, whereas the students filled out a questionnaire.
