The interdisciplinary forum for theoretical and empirical studies of

semiotic, and sociological studies of the creation, perception, and appreciation
of literary, musical, and visual art forms. Whether you are an active researcher
or an interested bystander, Empirical Studies of the Arts keeps
you up to date on the latest trends in scientific studies of the arts.
AIMS & SCOPE
Empirical Studies of the Arts is the official Journal of
the International Association of Empirical Aesthetics. The Journal
serves as a forum for empirical studies of aesthetics, creativity, and
all the arts as examined by researchers in all of the social sciences.
As well as research reports, the Journal publishes theoretical and
review articles. Research reports are quantitative or qualitative depending
upon the methods employed by the researcher. All articles are oriented
toward a general audience, so that scholars in allied disciplines such
as philosophical aesthetics, literary and art criticism, etc. who are interested
in current developments in empirical aesthetics can keep abreast of the
field.
From the start, Empirical Studies of the Arts has aimed to be
an inclusive central repository for high quality research reports, reviews,
and theoretical articles. One of the main reasons for starting the Journal
was the perception that work on scientific aesthetics is too widely scattered.
Thus, for example, psychologists or anthropologists may not hear for many
years about interesting new developments in sociology for the simple reason
that they do not regularly read sociology journals. This lack of communication
has impeded progress in empirical aesthetics, as it would be difficult
to argue that the arts can be adequately understood from the perspective
of any single discipline.
