The researcher used five tests to measure the components of creative thinking.

The most important findings were as follows: - There is a statistically significant difference in fluency attributed to response time of creative thinking tests in favor of repeated time and free time.

- There is a statistically significant difference in flexibility attributed to response time of creative thinking tests in favor of repeated time and free time.

- There is a statistically significant difference in originality attributed to response time of tests : (The ability to think creatively , Use Alternatives , merge things) in favor of repeated time and free time.

- There is a statistically significant difference in originality attributed to response time of tests : (Different uses , Groups formation) in favor of repeated time.

There is no a statistically significant difference in favor of free time.

- The effect size of the time factor is higher in fluency and flexibility than originality.
