<![CDATA[Creativity is a critical element in the learning environment, which leads to innovation and research advancement in higher education. However, assessing creativity is challenging due to its diverse nature and the lack of standardized tools. The existing assessment tools often overlook the critical role of organizational culture in shaping individual creativity within academic settings. To address this gap, the individual creativity assessment tool (i-CAT) was developed based on the framework of organizational culture to assess its contribution to creativity among Malaysian academicians. This study aimed to i) assess the usability of i-CAT and ii) determine the significant effect of demographic factors on its usability assessment. A quantitative methodology, utilizing expert sampling and the system usability scale (SUS), was employed as the primary evaluation method. 20 experts with relevant professional and academic experience were selected for the validation. The results showed excellent usability, with 95% of experts rating the information system as functionally acceptable. A one way analysis of variance (ANOVA) found no significant difference in usability based on profession or education levels, but a significant difference was observed for experience levels. These findings confirm that i-CAT is a functional, user-friendly, and culturally relevant tool for creativity assessment within Malaysia’s higher education institutions.]]>
