This study is one of them. It focuses on initially exploring the complex relationship between the three variables, reasonable aesthetic conception, non-reasonable aesthetic experience, and creativity thinking, which connects both reasonableness and intuition.Around the center of this theme, firstly we viewed the related studies of China and other countries and related studies in other field. Comparatively, more studies focus on drawing aesthetic concept, the training of aesthetic concept, and the relationship between aesthetic concept and aesthetic experience, the relationship between creativity thinking and aesthetic intuition experience. But there are much fewer studies researching about understanding aesthetic concept, aesthetic transfer, creativity thinking and aesthetic concept or reasonableness. From these weak points, we induce three basic questions, and put forward three basic hypothesizes. Based on this, three experiments are designed in order to test the hypothesizes experimentally.Study one: An experimental study on the effect of understanding basic concepts of formal beauty on the level of aesthetic experience. This experiment discusses that if there exists a significant correlation or reason relation between aesthetic concept understanding and aesthetic experience. The subjects are divided into two groups. Group A (ordinary group) is 310 students ranging from elementary school to university. Group B (special group) is 24 students from the art decorative department of a university. Students of the experimental groups were taught the Basic Concept Training of Formal Beauty. Both experimental groups and contrast groups were given a series of tests before and after the experiment, namely, a test of understanding formal beauty concepts and a test of aesthetic experience developed by author. The result showed that students development of basic formal beauty understanding and aesthetic experience of both experimental groups and contrast groups had been improved no matter whether they were taught æƒasic Concept Training of Formal Beauty or not. The students of experimental groups given the training have improved their basic formal beauty understanding while significantly improved their aesthetic experience as a whole. But there was an exception. Students of group A in Grade Five in the elementary school and students of group B in Grade Two in the university have showed no significant difference between the former and the later aesthetic experience factors. It means that it is limited to improve aesthetic experience through aesthetic reason under certain conditions. Besides, the regression analysis also indicates that the correctness and accuracy of formal beauty understanding are the main factors that influence the factors of aesthetic experience while examples of concepts affect aesthetic perception, aesthetic feeling and aesthetic association.Study two: An experimental study on the effect of understanding basic concepts of formal beauty on creative thinking. The independent variable, experimental deal-with and subjects are the same with the3-/-Group A in study one. It focuses on if there exists a significant correlation or reason relation between aesthetic concept understanding and creative thinking. Both experimental groups and contrast groups were given two tests before and after the experiment, namely, a Test of Understanding Concepts of Formal Beauty designed by the author and Torrance抯 Test of Creative Thinking. The result showed that understanding of basic formal beauty has a great impact on creative thinking task. Generally, female subjects showed obvious advantages over male. However, there wasn抰 any significant gender difference among grades except some individual cases. And there was significant correlation between the seven factors of aesthetic concept understanding and the six factors o...
