The RIBS is used to assess the participants’ creative ideation. Creative ideation (CI) referred to the process of generating original ideas in response to given open-ended problems (Fink and Benedek, 2014). The RIBS (Runco et al., 2001) consists of 23 items that are measured on a 5-point Likert scale (1 = never and 5 = very often). This one-dimensional scale is based on the theory that certain ideas may be products of not only original or divergent thinking but creative thinking as a whole (Guilford, 1967). The internal consistency reliability of RIBS was satisfactory in the present study (Cronbach’s α = 0.86).
