<![CDATA[This study aims to develop and assess the feasibility of a creative thinking skills test instrument for fifth-grade elementary school students. The instrument was constructed based on four core indicators of creative thinking: fluency, flexibility, originality, and elaboration, and consists of eight essay-type items. A quantitative approach with a descriptive method was employed in this research. The instrument trial was conducted with 41 fifth-grade students from an elementary school in Ciamis Regency during the 2024/2025 academic year. The instrument was evaluated through content and construct validity analysis, reliability testing, item discrimination, and difficulty level analysis. The results of the validity test showed that all items were valid, with r calculated values exceeding the r table (0.3081). Reliability testing using Cronbach’s Alpha yielded a coefficient categorized as moderate, indicating sufficient internal consistency. The item discrimination analysis revealed that most items were in the good and acceptable categories, although two items required revision or replacement. In terms of difficulty level, seven items were classified as moderate and one as easy. These findings suggest that the developed instrument possesses adequate psychometric properties and is suitable for measuring elementary students’ creative thinking skills. Furthermore, it offers potential as an alternative assessment tool for evaluating higher-order thinking skills in primary education contexts.]]>
