K. (2014). Epistemological beliefs and the effect of authority on argument-counterargument integration: An experiment. Thinking Skills and Creativity, 13, 67-79. AbstractPersonal epistemology describes an individual's beliefs about the structure, stability and sources of knowledge and knowing. These beliefs contribute to how we interpret information, weigh evidence and justify an argument. In this study, we examined whether exposure to information from an authoritative source affects Chinese students' performance in a subsequent argumentation task that required integrating conflicting views. Furthermore, we examined how epistemological beliefs interact with the effect of authoritative information on argumentation performance. 204 undergraduates participated. The results suggested that the participants who were experimentally exposed to authoritative information generated fewer counter reasons and produced arguments that were less elaborated and weaker in strength than those produced by participants who were not exposed to authoritative information.Specifically, the experimental manipulation had a more significant effect on those who held a belief that knowledge is drawn from authority than on those who perceived knowledge as constructed. In addition, the performance of those who believed knowledge is complicated and ever-changing was hampered under the experimental condition. Theoretical and practicebased implications are discussed.

“…Trainee and experienced teachers lack confidence when thinking about creativity, confuse it with the reproduction of objects and ideas, have little confidence in their ability to assess it, and feel a need for training in fostering it (e.g. Kampylis et al, 2009 [Greece]; Newton & Newton, 2009;2010 [UK]; Chien and Hiu, 2010;Hui and Yuen, 2010 [China] Hui and Yuen (2010) note that educators believe creativity is beneficial to learning and recognize it can be developed across various domains of knowledge, but they are challenged by how to foster it.…”

“…Painting is one of the ways to represent people's imagination [1] (pp. [11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29]; in other words, people like to record their imaginary and observed scenes in paintings. Moreover, paintings are the sum of people's perceptions of objects (such as the perceptions of the appearance of the shape, volume, and color of the object).…”

Children’s paintings reflect their growth environments and psychological conditions, and these growth environments represent children’s family and educational environments in primary schools. The characteristics of these paintings change as children grow, and children’s expressiveness in the paintings also improves. Children’s paintings are a representation of their perceptions of things; children transform their perceptions into images that can be understood and observed by people. This research studies the growth characteristics of children based on professional painting techniques. A digital image analysis method was used to analyze the painting techniques of children aged between 7 and 13. The growth characteristics of the different age groups were combined to analyze the representative characteristics of children’s paintings at different ages. Lastly, the results of part of a questionnaire survey were used to assist in studying these characteristics. Analysis of these paintings shows that children have a poor ability to control the scale of the objects. Furthermore, the details of the objects are ignored, and children have a poor imitation ability. Young children have lower spatial cognitive abilities than older children, and girls prefer to participate in painting more than boys.
