“…Also, no group-level preference was observed in the present data as to whether horizontally or vertically oriented arrangements were generally preferred. This ®nding converges with the results of Kubey and Barnett (1989), who did not ®nd any preference for an orientation of horizontally or vertically presented rectangles. Eysenck (1988) suggested solving the problem of objectivity of aesthetic judgments by using average judgments.…”

Individual differences in aesthetic judgments were investigated by comparing quantitative group and individual performance models of the judgment processes. Aesthetic judgments of beauty over novel, formal, graphic patterns were collected from 34 non-artist college students using a two-step ranking-rating procedure. Their judgment processes were individually modelled using Judgment Analysis. The participants showed noted individual differences. Certain features of the stimulus material, which were considered to contribute to the picture's beauty by one participant, were used in an opposing fashion by another. A group model was derived based on the average ratings of the patterns' beauty. It was concluded that the group model was not an adequate representation of the present data, whereas the data revealed systematic judgment processes at the individual subject level.

“…In addition, details of results reported in the literature, such as huge error variances or null effects (e.g. Kubey & Barnett, 1989), for example, might also indicate individual differences. This, of course, may hold for certain types of stimuli, such as those mentioned in this paragraph, whereas it does not hold for others.…”
