This study examined the perceived creativity level of two models, one produced by hand and the other computer generated and produced using rapid prototyping technology, through seven dimensions (Novelty, Aesthetics, Effort, Variation, Deviation, Detail, and Complexity). This study considered potential changes in perceived creativity resulting from the introduction of computer modeling and rapid prototyping. It further studied those dimensions which showed a significant change in creativity, as predictors of how computer modeling software and rapid prototyping increases creative thinking.
