摘要：

There is an emerging interest in the positive influence of creativity on individuals' psychological well-being (PWB). Considering most studies focused on the relationship between divergent thinking and PWB, only several studies have dealt with the role of convergent thinking in PWB, which should be just as important, if not more so. To deepen the knowledge on the association between convergent thinking and PWB, 423 undergraduates were invited to complete the Mindful Attention Awareness Scale, the PWB Scale and the Remote Associates test. As expected, results showed a positive association between PWB and convergent thinking. Also, mindfulness was found to partially mediate the relationship between creativity and PWB. Potential implications and future research directions are proposed.
