The current research aimed to prepare an Iraqi picture of the Averill Emotional Creativity Scale by identifying the global construction of the scale in the light of Averill's theory of educational counselors, identifying the connotations of charity and its stability, and identifying emotional creativity among educational counselors.

The scale was prepared (Averill, 1999), which consisted of (30) items distributed over three dimensions, with (7) items for the dimension of Preparedness, and (14) items for the dimension of novelty, and (9) for the dimension of Effectiveness/ Authenticity, formulated in the manner of declarative phrases, and in front of each item (5) graded alternatives to the answer (strongly agree, moderately agree, slightly agree, disagree, strongly disagree) given to them when correcting (5,4,3,2,1) respectively, And after Arabizing the scale and verifying the validity of its translation, and analyzing its paragraphs logically by presenting it to a group of specialized arbitrators, it was applied to (400) educational counselors who were chosen by random class method from the educational counselors in the education directorates in the six Baghdad governorate, the correlation of the degree of each paragraph with the total score of the scale was verified, and the validity of the scale was verified through the apparent validity and the validity of the factorial construction, which showed the presence of three factors for emotional creativity:novelty, Effectiveness/ Authenticity, and Preparedness.

And for each factor of the scale, all the reliability coefficients were good, and the results showed that the educational counselors enjoy emotional creativity, and in the light of the research results, a set of recommendations and suggestions were identified.
