Goude G. A multidimensional scaling approach to the perception of art. II. Scand. J. Psychol., 1972, 13, 272–284.—Three series of experiments with multidimensional scaling of art experiences (of eight paintings) were performed. In the first series groups which had followed lectures in art history were compared to otherwise similar groups without lecturing within this field. The second study compared four age-groups (8, 10, 12 and 14 years). The third series was a comparative study with a group of schizophrenic patients.
