RESUMO
This is a study of the Evolution of the Creative Thought in a musical context, being music the technique which provided for the expression of children s thinking in a problem solving situation. Based on Piaget, criteria for analyses and proofs for the study of creativity were developed, in order to observe how the oppening of schemes occured, and how the expression of knowledge structures in the construction of novelty by the subjects occured as well. Two different cultures, brazilian and american, were observed and analised. It was seen that the criteria found were similar and independent of cultural interference. The data collected summed up to 400 subjects, and 200 interviews were conducted in each culture. Each age group (from 4 to 13 years old) was fonned with 40 subjects. Each subject was studied individually. The sections lasted no longer than 45 minutes per child. The subjects were selected based on their involvement in the problem-solving music activity which led them to the construction of a story, used on further analyses. These analyses showed that there are, in both cultures, subjacent mechanisms which lead to the observable production of ideas and novelties in the logical problem-solving action. Creativity was studied concretely and therefore defined as the evolution of the creative thought itself. This evolution evidenced the equilibration happening in a process of problem-solving. "To create" equalized to "the practice of creation". Therefore, the subject when creating a thought, learns how to think (creates schemes, exercises the opening of schemes, maintains previous schemes, and creates new structures), demonstrating in this manner one of the facets of the construction of_eir own intelligence. In conclusion, it was learned that the subjects behavior in the problem-solving action in musical context is not structured by the environment, but by the subjects themselves
