Abstract
The article presents a comparison of artistic and creative achievements of Slovenian fifth grade primary school students using a sample of 321 fifth graders (11 and 12 year olds) from 12 primary schools (4 urban and 8 suburban schools). The previously verified LV1 test was used as the research instrument that was employed to establish the existing condition of artistic creativity. The test was used to monitor six factors of artistic creativity.
The analysis of results indicated that there were statistically significant gender differences in artistic flexibility and sensibility for artistic problems in favour of girls. Furthermore, possible differences among students from the urban and suburban environment were studied. There was a statistically significant difference concerning the factor of artistic fluency, where students from the urban environment achieved better results.
