摘要：The study attempted to reveal the influence of intelligence,creativity and academic self-concept on academic performance among 391 participants (191 males and 200 females) belonging to 6-8 years of age within Aizawl Municipal area of Mizoram in India 's North-East.The participants completed the background demographic information;Working Memory Index (WMI) and Perceptual Reasoning Index (PRI) of Wechsler 's Inteligence Scale for Children-IV (WISC-IV;Wechsler,2003);fluency,originality and imagination subtests of Thinking Creatively in Action and Movement (TCAM;Torrance,1981) ;as well as academic self-concept scale and academic performance index developed for the study based on operationalization in empirical research.Only one significant instance emerged in the analyses for gender differences,wherein,males as compared to females to indicate greater scores on imagination subtest of creativity.The step-wise multiple regression analysis revealed WMI as the major predictor of academic performance followed by PRI of the intelligence measure.The demographic profiles;fluency,originality and imagination subtest of creativity;and academic self-concept failed to evince significant predictability of academic performance.The findings are discussed in the light of the developmental changes occurring at early elementary school years and the relative academic performance occurring with differing scores on intelligence,more specifically the working memory.
