Abstract This study aims to compare the Scientific Creativity of secondary school students across various demographic variables, including gender, grade level, type of institution, family structure, parental education, and parental occupation. For this purpose, data were collected from 200 students in grades 8th and 9th in Chhattisgarh, India. A survey method was used, and data were gathered from a representative sample of students using a standardized Scientific Creativity Test. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, t-test, and ANOVA. Hypotheses were tested at the α = 0.05 level of significance. The analysis showed no significant differences in Scientific Creativity based on gender, grade level, type of institution, family structure, parental education, or parental occupation. However, students with academically supportive backgrounds exhibited higher levels of Scientific Creativity. These findings emphasize the impact of socio-demographic factors on students' interest in scientific exploration and suggest the need for targeted educational strategies to foster Scientific Creativity among diverse student groups.
