Influence of Exposure on Preschoolers' Art Preferences.

Bowker, Jeanette E.; Sawyers, Janet K.

Early Childhood Research Quarterly, v3 n1 p107-15 Mar 1988

Two studies investigated: (1) the art preference of young children for realistic, stylized, and abstract styles; and (2) the influence that exposure to art has on these style preferences. Analyses revealed that exposure increased preference for the selected painting as well as preference for other paintings in that style. (PCB)
