The purpose of this paper is to suggest an empirical model to assess personal characteristics and creative behaviour among creative workers in Indonesia’s creative industries. It is critical for people to do their best to ensure and realise that creativity is one of the most important elements in order to achieve high performance. Although a few previous studies have focused on the understanding of how the myriad of interacting potential creators can foster their performance, the characteristics and behaviour patterns of Indonesia’s creative workers are not well identified yet. Considering this, a new measure has been developed and evaluated with a group of creative workers (N = 220). This study presents data supporting the reliability (internal consistency) and validity (criterion and construction) of this multidimensional instrument. The results of factor analysis indicated a fivefactor solution. These factors demonstrated adequate internal consistency and correlations with the established measures of the Big-Five personality (e.g. the NEO-FFI of Costa & McCrae 1992). It was found that the most important elements determining the characteristics of creative people are enthusiasm, a low depression level, self-discipline, trust, and ideas

The research performance was measured on the frequency of publications and number of scientific papers. Besides, the research also included two moderator variables, namely, culture and information technology application. The literature study and a real system study were used for developing the model. The model was tested by using a structural equation modeling method. This research found that the type-based knowledge sharing has a positive effect on research performance, and the intensity of using diverse sharing methods has also a positive effect on research performance. In addition, proper culture and information technology application have some impacts on increasing research performance. Keywords: knowledge sharing, research performance, intellectual capita
