                            <p>This study aims to examine the effects of university students&#039; cognitive flexibility and motivational dynamics on their creative thinking skills. Designed as a quantitative study using a correlational survey model, this research was conducted with 417 undergraduate students selected through convenience sampling from Hatay Mustafa Kemal University, Iskenderun Technical University, and Gaziantep University during the 2024-2025 academic year. The Cognitive Flexibility Scale, Academic Motivation Scale, and Marmara Creative Thinking Tendencies Scale were used as data collection tools in the study. The data were analyzed using IBM SPSS Statistics 27 software, and Pearson correlation analysis and hierarchical regression analysis were applied.The findings showed that students&#039; academic motivation levels were at a medium-high level (X̄=4.62), their cognitive flexibility levels were at a medium-high level (X̄=4.30), and their creative thinking tendencies were at a medium-high level (X̄=3.77).
