Art in preschool: how does it support children's attention and visual perception development?
Özet
The present study investigates the effect of an art education program (AEP) on the development of attention and visual perception in preschool children. The study group comprised 45 children aged between 60 and 72 months (24 in the control group and 21 in the experimental group) who were enrolled in preschool education. The study used an experimental model with a pretest-posttest control group. The data were collected through the Identifying Information Form, Frostig visual perception test, and Frankfurter attention test. The study data were analyzed through the SPSS 25 package software. Independent sample t-test and paired sample t-test were used in the analysis of the data. The findings showed that the post-test scores of visual perception scores and attention test scores in the experimental group increased significantly compared to the pre-test scores. The implementation of arts activities, encompassing painting, cutting and pasting, and three-dimensional arts, within the preschool setting has supported the development of children's attention and visual perception.
