This systematic review explores the research trends of Creative Problem-Solving Ability (CPSA) of adolescents in school from 2010-2024, using the guidelines of PRISMA. The review considered 27 of the selected research literature found in databases of Scopus, Elsevier, ProQuest, and Sage. Findings suggest interest in CPSA continues to grow in academia for the years 2019-2021, and research utilizing quantitative methods (88.9%) and a cross-sectional design (63%) were most prevalent. Studies commonly utilized surveys as an approach to conducting research as well as random sampling to create the samples used. Studies primarily examined college level students, followed by elementary, and secondary. Although research on CPSA can be found in many countries, Indonesia touted the most research output on CPSA over the years, with India, and Turkey following. The review found collaborative learning models, project-based learning models, and seamless learning environments to be an effective means to increase CPSA. The review identified the lack of qualitative research focusing on CPSA, and the necessity of research that was culturally contextualized or included diverse populations. The review established the imperative role CPSA plays in developing critical thinkers, adaptability, and academic success in all learners, and demonstrated the need for further research inclusive of varied methodologies to further develop adolescents' creative capacities around the world.
