Abstract | A study was conducted to determine the effect of language arts instruction that emphasized aesthetics on the attitude, self-concept, and IQ of primary school students. The subjects, 129 kindergarten through grade two students in a large urban school, were divided into an experimental and a control group. The experimental group received language arts instruction that emphasized music activities related to language, creative dramatics, puppetry, audiovisual aids, art activities and trips to museums, galleries, and interesting architectural sites. Control group students received no special aesthetic instruction. All students were administered measures of self-concept, attitude, and IQ. Results indicated that the enriched language arts program did not change self-concept, attitude, or IQ for kindergarten and first grade children, but did seem to affect the attitude and IQ of the second grade subjects.
