Jerneja Herzog, Nika Lopert , Matjaž Duh Abstract The article is based on research of fine arts creativity carried out among elementary school fifth-grade students. The introductory theoretical section addresses children’s fine arts development and analyses the very complex notion of fine arts creativity by defining its factors. The second part is an empirical study of fifth-grade students’ fine arts creative skills, based on an assessment of the correlation between the factors defining fine arts creativity. Both descriptive and non-experimental methods were used on a systematic random sample of 1364 Slovene fifth-grade students. The results showed statistically significant differences in the level of fine arts development between the two genders, with the girls being more successful than the boys. The same is true of elaboration as a factor of fine arts creativity. The analysis of linear associations showed some connections between the factors encouraging fine arts creativity and between those enabling it. The connection between these two groups of factors was also established. Keywords: factors of creativity, correlations, visual art, primary school PhD.
