It is often claimed that creative dance enhances children's abilities to express thoughts through movement (Drewe, 1996; Stinson, 1988). The purpose of this study was to investigate this claim empirically. It was hypothesized that children with creative dance background should perform better than children with ballet or no dance backgrounds in tasks involving physical expression of concepts.

520 $a It is often claimed that creative dance enhances children's abilities to express thoughts through movement (Drewe, 1996; Stinson, 1988). The purpose of this study was to investigate this claim empirically. It was hypothesized that children with creative dance background should perform better than children with ballet or no dance backgrounds in tasks involving physical expression of concepts.
520 $a Three groups of children (N=35) 6 to 7 years of age selected from creative dance, ballet, and public schools were administered the Test of Gross Motor Development (Ulrich, 1985), the Torrance Thinking Creatively in Action and Movement (Torrance, 1981), and an experimental task on physical expression of concrete and abstract concepts. TGMD and TCAM results showed no differences among groups regarding motor skills and creativity in movement. The experimental task showed no significant differences between the groups, indicating that exposure to creative dance does not appear to enhance children's physical expression of concepts.
