The Effectiveness of Creative Dramatics and Storytelling in a Library Setting

Amato, Anthony; And Others

Journal of Educational Research, 67, 4, 161-5, Dec 73

This 2-year study involving 298 grade school pupils investigates the comparative effectiveness of creative dramatics and storytelling. While the results indicate neither had an effect on children's interests and reading achievement, there is indication that storytelling may have more influence than creative dramatics on self-image and empathy.
