Abstract

Researchers in experimental aesthetics are interested in people interpret and engage in visual discourse, such as artworks. Unsurprisingly, people’s willingness to cognitively engage with art may be a key factor, but there are not yet measures that capture this construct. The current research proposes the Aesthetics Processing Preference Scale (APPS) to fill this gap. In two studies, the APPS was found to be a reliable and valid measure of people’s willingness to engage with art.

Keyphrases: Art literacy, aesthetics, cognitive engagement
