This research was designed to examine the quality of children's aesthetic understanding of photographs, observe social interactions between parents and children in this aesthetic domain, and study whether qualitatively different dyadic interactions were associated with children's own aesthetic understanding. Parents and children (7-13 years; 40 dyads) individually completed measures of aesthetic understanding and jointly selected photographs for a souvenir scrapbook. Parents' artistic experience varied widely and was associated with their own performance on aesthetic understanding measures. Children's performance on the individual aesthetic tasks was related to age, but not to parents' art experience nor to the qualities of parent-child discussions of aesthetic concepts. Among both parents and children, artistic experience was associated with aesthetic preferences for photographs.
本研究旨在考察儿童对照片的审美理解质量，观察父母与孩子在这一审美领域的社会互动，并研究性质不同的二元互动是否与儿童自身的审美理解相关。父母与孩子（7至13岁；40对）分别完成审美理解测试，并共同为一本纪念剪贴簿挑选照片。父母的艺术经历差异很大，且与他们自己在审美理解测试中的表现相关。儿童在个体审美任务上的表现与年龄有关，但与父母的艺术经历以及亲子对审美概念的讨论质量无关。在父母和孩子中，艺术经历都与对照片的审美偏好有关。
