  In this study, we focus on the methodological problems of measurement and estimation of originality. In the first part, we introduce some score systems which are applied by creativity tests, and we highlight the possibilities and the dangerous sides of estimation scales of originality. The second part of this study shows a concurrent validity examination (n=127). Applied tests and variables are originality indexes of the Tóth’s Estimation Scale of Creativity (TKBS) and the Unusual uses and the Circles tests. Results: about r = 0,2 significant (p≤0,05) correlations were among the originality scores – it is not enough from the aspect of concurrent validation.
