INTRODUCTION: Creativity in Parkinson's disease (PD) has aroused research interest due to its neurological underpinnings, which involve brain regions crucial for creative and divergent thinking (a core-process of creative thinking), and because of some patients who displayed an increased artistic drive following dopaminergic treatment. From a cognitive point of view, creative thinking underlies several cognitive abilities, such as executive functions and memory. Therefore, a better understanding of whether it is increased (or, at least, preserved) in PD patients can provide useful insights for sustaining cognitive functioning. The aim of the present study was to investigate whether PD patients regularly assuming dopaminergic medications present higher divergent thinking skills than healthy controls.
METHODS: A meta-analysis was conducted according to the PRISMA guidelines to provide a statistical synthesis of the studies. Study quality was assessed using the QUADAS -2 tool.
RESULTS: Ten studies were included in the meta-analysis, which indicated the absence of significant differences between PD patients and healthy controls in tasks assessing divergent thinking (Cohen's d = -0,095 (95% CI: -0,308, 0,118)).
CONCLUSIONS: Such findings support the notion that divergent thinking can be spared by the disease, maybe constituting a possible resource for patients' cognitive functioning, as it involves those cognitive abilities that can compensate impairments in PD. Clinical implications and guidance to further studies and interventions to support PD patients' cognition were discussed.
