Open Access padlockePrints

The Newcastle University research output collection, currently available on ePrints, will shortly be moving to a new open repository platform, Figshare. To prepare for the data migration we have paused adding new content to ePrints, and will resume once the new repository is launched. During this time you will continue to have access to ePrints (but no new content will appear). We will share updates here when available.

Abstract

This study compares the use of the Repertory Grid to ascertain constructs from the differing domains of art and design. Four studies are compared, covering abstract art, portraits, pictures of flowers and cutlery. Cognitive, aesthetic and behavioural constructs follow a 6:3:1 pattern of frequency of occurence.
