A Balanced Approach to Art
| Challenge: | Health | | Category: | Intermediate | | Region: | Eastern Newfoundland | | City: | Paradise, NL | | School: | Holy Spirit H.S. | | Abstract: | This project studied visual preference and whether a person would intrinsically prefer more balanced images. Subjects were grouped according to age and gender and were asked to select their preference between a pair of images. Further study was warranted when it was noted that pre-school subjects both picked and responded in an atypical way than all other age groups studied. |
