Abstract
Creativity is the highest order of thinking, which leads students to generate new ways to find a
solution to many unpredictable problems in the future. Although there are many studies on
creative thinking ability, no research focused on augmented reality and visualizer-verbalizer
cognitive style in creative thinking ability. This study aims to describe creative thinking ability
assisted with augmented reality view from visualizer-verbalizer cognitive style. This study used
a qualitative descriptive approach. The subjects of this study were selected four students' 52
from the 10th grade. The process of selecting this subject was analyzed by the Rasch Model
analysis using Winsteps software version 3.73. The data were collected using Visualizer-
Verbalizer Questionnaire (VVQ), a creative thinking ability test assisted with augmented reality
and interview. The final scale from the visualizer scale has a Cronbach alpha value of 0.67,
while the verbalizer scale has a Cronbach alpha value of 0.66. The results show that the
visualizer students meet all the indicators of creative thinking ability: fluency, flexibility,
originality, and elaboration. While the verbalizer students only meet fluency indicators or
fluency and originality indicators in creative thinking ability. Therefore, based on this research
analysis, teachers can pay more attention to the students' cognitive style in creative thinking
ability.
