Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Baqer Mehdi's Test of Creativity is a verbal test of creative thinking developed for the Indian context, built on the divergent-thinking model of creativity (fluency, flexibility, originality). It consists of four verbal tasks: Consequences, Unusual Uses, New Relationship, and Product Improvement.

Checking each offered task against this four-task battery: generating unconventional uses for an object, framing new relationships between given pairs, and suggesting product improvements are all explicitly among the four tasks of this specific test. An "ask-and-guess" task, however, belongs to a different creativity battery -- the original Torrance Tests of Creative Thinking -- and is not one of Baqer Mehdi's four component tasks.

  • Unusual uses related task -- one of the four component tasks of this test.

  • New relation between pairs related task -- corresponds to the "New Relationship" component task of this test.

  • Product improvement related task -- one of the four component tasks of this test.

  • Ask and guess related task -- not part of this test's four-task battery; it belongs to a different (Torrance) creative-thinking assessment.

This matches the HTET 2022 (Computer Science paper) official answer key published by BSEH, confirming the "ask-and-guess" task as the one not related to Baqer Mehdi's Test of Creativity.
