The primary purpose of Del Giacco's Neuro-Art Therapy is to help the client regenerate the sensory system at a decoding/encoding (for our purposes we use the two words interchangeably) levels in the brain while using developmental visual spatial exercises or the Therapeutic Drawing Series (TDS). The specialty of Del Giacco Neuro Art Therapy (DAT)…

A project investigated the feasibility of training spatial visualization to facilitate transfer among tasks requiring these abilities and thus reduce training time and increase personnel flexibility. Eighty undergraduate college students participated in a study of from one to five days duration. Experimental subjects received extensive practice…

A program investigated the feasibility of training selected abilities so as to facilitate transfer among tasks requiring these abilities and thus reduce training time and increase personnel flexibility. An extensive review of relevant literature was a first step in this investigation. Undergraduate college students were used as subjects in an…

A non-informative cue (C) elicits an inhibition of manual reaction time (MRT) to a visual target (T). We report an experiment to examine if the spatial distribution of this inhibitory effect follows Polar or Cartesian coordinate systems. C appeared at one out of 8 isoeccentric (7[degrees]) positions, the C-T angular distances (in polar…

Utilizes the statistical procedure of meta-analysis in a quantitative review of art education research literature. Discovers that art education is more effective in producing results concerning aesthetic perception than visual-spatial ability. Discusses possible implications of the study and recommends further combination of quantitative and…
