Adviser: Sally Carter.

Thesis (Ed.D.)--Oklahoma State University, 2002.

<italic>Scope and method of study</italic>. The purpose of this research was to explore the beliefs that emerge from children's explanations and interpretations of art. It was designed to offer educators insight into how students respond to questions about what art means to them. The study was conducted using Q-methodology with 20 fifth grade students from an elementary school in a rural Southern-plains college town. The Q-sorts were intercorrelated and the resultant 20 x 20 correlation matrix was factor analyzed using a principal component analysis. Three meaningful factors were extracted with a varimax-rotation.

It was designed to offer educators insight into how students respond to questions about what art means to them. The study was conducted using Q-methodology with 20 fifth grade students from an elementary school in a rural Southern-plains college town. The Q-sorts were intercorrelated and the resultant 20 x 20 correlation matrix was factor analyzed using a principal component analysis. Three meaningful factors were extracted with a varimax-rotation.
520 $a <italic>Findings and conclusions</italic>. The beliefs expressed in the factors are represented by the following names: Traditional Practice, Expressive Practice, and Inspired Practice. Traditional Practice represents beliefs in accord with a disciplined based philosophy; Expressive Practice relates to an individuals development of aesthetic awareness as outlined by Viktor Lowenfeld; and, Spiritual Practice finds meaning in the belief system of individuals. The study, however, uncovered more than beliefs about the process of making art and the characterization of an artist, it revealed a sophisticated understanding of the underpinnings of the art world and its structures. The students universally defined art as a product of imagination and creativity and a way to express feelings and emotions. Furthermore, the age of the individual who produces art was insignificant to each group. The research results clearly demonstrated that objects made by machine, such as cars or motorcycles are not considered art by this group of children.
