This exploratory study investigates Morningness - Eveningness personality and creative thinking in a sample of young people practicing recreational sports. Data show that males are more Eveningness-oriented than females, Evening subjects have lower scores in creative thinking, even though these are not statistically significant; the Elaboration factor of the Torrance Test of Creative Thinking is positively correlated with the practice of sport activities in the whole sample, and the Elaboration and Fluidity factors are negatively correlated with intermediate and Morningness dispositions. The relationship between sport activity (hours per week), Morningness - Eveningness personality and creative thinking was also explored.
