Sammanfattning
The mean scores of the Creative Climate Questionnaire for 152 staff members working in 58 sheltered homes for individuals with autism were rated closer to creative than to stagnant organizations. There was a significant difference between two types of settings. In sheltered homes, the persons with autism had their daily activity outside the home. Here staff members had higher scores in all creative dimensions compared to homes with daily activities. Staff in sheltered homes, where the residents leave the premises for their daily work or activities, perceived the work climate as significantly more creative and satisfying.
