If you stick with the terms listed, it seems that your results will be similar to past studies. Using phenomen-based terms could put you on track to adding to new knowledge. Just be sure to stay away from using phenomenon-based terms used by artists. This has been overplayed in the literature. At this point in history - we need a true descriptive definition of creativity as a person-centered process. Research, for the most part, over the past 50 years has been circular.
