The Effect of Pictures on Children's Attitudes Toward Presented Stories
Samuels, S. Jay; And Others
Journal of Educational Research, 67, 6, 243-6, Feb 74
Fifty-four second graders read three stories under three different picture conditions (color picture, outline, and no picture) on consecutive days. Pupils were tested each day on attitude towards what was read. Results showed that children significantly preferred stories with pictures to ones with no pictures and especially liked those in color.
