Abstract: In the study of creativity, rather than an individual trait, greater importance has gradually been attached to a social collaborative result, which results from individuals working together on a task in a complex social system. This article firstly made a brief introduction about the concept of collaborative creativity and its characteristics, then summarized the main research work in the field: individual/group identity, individual/group motivation (connective motivation), the individual/contextual factors that helpful to collaborative creativity; finally put forward the problems to be settled in the future. It was suggested that a systematic theory on collaborative creativity should be constructed and an assessing system be developed on the basis of the process from which creative outcomes occurred and the mechanism of creative production, also supportive technique and context for collaborative creativity should be studied further.

Key words: collaborative creativity, group identity, connective motivation, collaborative context, supportive technique for collaboration
