Bu araştırmada matematik öğretmen adaylarının matematiksel yaratıcılık beceri düzeyleri ile matematiksel yaratıcılıklarına ilişkin öz-yeterlik algı düzeylerinin belirlenmesi ve aralarındaki ilişkilerin incelenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Ayrıca öğretmen adaylarının matematiksel yaratıcılık ve yaratıcılığa ilişkin öz-yeterlik algı düzeyleri cinsiyet ve sınıf düzeyi değişkenleri açısından araştırılmıştır. Araştırma 204 ilköğretim matematik öğretmen adayının katılımıyla gerçekleştirilmiştir. Araştırmanın verileri Matematiksel Yaratıcılık Beceri Testi, Matematiksel Yaratıcılığa İlişkin Öz-Yeterlik Algı Ölçeği, Matematiksel Yaratıcılığa İlişkin Problem Odaklı Öz-Yeterlik Algı Ölçeği ile toplanmıştır. Araştırmada öğretmen adaylarının matematiksel yaratıcılık ve genel matematiksel yaratıcılığa ilişkin öz-yeterlik algı puanının “orta” düzeyde olduğu problem odaklı matematiksel yaratıcılığa ilişkin öz-yeterlik algı puanlarının “iyi” düzeyde olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Ayrıca araştırmanın sonuçları matematiksel yaratıcılık ve problem odaklı matematiksel yaratıcılığa ilişkin öz-yeterlik algı puanlarının cinsiyet ve sınıf düzeyi değişkenleri açısından farklılık göstermediği görülmüştür. Genel matematiksel yaratıcılığa ilişkin öz-yeterlik algı puanları erkeklerin lehine anlamlı farklılık gösterirken, sınıf düzeyi değişkeni açısından farklılık belirlenememiştir. Son olarak yaratıcılık puanları ile öz-yeterlik algı puanları arasında anlamlı ilişkiler olduğu belirlenmiştir.
