故事呈现的视觉与社会维度：其对儿童想象力和创造力的影响

Background/Objectives: As digital media becomes central to children’s lives, understanding its cognitive effects is essential. Children increasingly experience stories without parental involvement (e.g., through digital video stories), and highly visualized content may require less imagination. This study examined how the social context of story presentation (parental reading vs. audio narration) and the level of visualization (animation, pictures, and text-only stories) affect children’s creativity and mental imagery. Methods: The study included 70 children aged 5–8 years (32 girls, 38 boys).
