摘要
以往的研究表明,人生意义与对艺术的心理参与(即审美参与)呈正相关,如对艺术的兴趣、对艺术的了解、对艺术的敬畏以及对艺术体验的超自然归因。我们对这项工作进行了扩展,考虑了审美倾向(即审美倾向)的相关性,如对经验的开放性、一般和艺术的创造性以及宗教信仰的显著性。具体来说,我们提出了一个关于审美倾向、审美参与和人生意义的概念模型。我们以 N = 696 名艺术家为在线样本,检验了从该模型中得出的假设。相关结果支持了我们的假设,并重复了之前的研究结果。路径分析结果表明,对艺术的兴趣在审美倾向和人生意义之间起到了中介作用。这些结果通过揭示与艺术进行有意义互动的相关因素,为审美认知主义(即艺术可以导致理解的哲学立场)的实证研究做出了贡献。
Aesthetic Dispositions, Aesthetic Engagement, and Meaning in Life
Previous research revealed that meaning in life is related positively to psychological engagement with art (i.e., aesthetic engagement), such as interest in art, knowledge about art, awe around art, and supernatural attributions for art experiences. We extended this work by considering the relevance of dispositions toward aesthetics (i.e., aesthetic dispositions), such as openness to experience, creativity in general and in art, and religious belief salience. Specifically, we proposed a conceptual model relating aesthetic dispositions, aesthetic engagement, and meaning in life. We tested hypotheses derived from the model with an online sample of N = 696 artists. Correlational results supported our hypotheses and replicated previous findings. Path analytic results showed that interest in art mediated associations between aesthetic dispositions and meaning in life. The results contribute to empirical work on aesthetic cognitivism, the philosophical stance that art can lead to understanding, by shedding light on factors associated with meaningful interactions with art.
