Empirical Studies of the Arts is an interdisciplinary journal dedicated to empirical research in the field of art, providing a platform for scholars from different disciplines to collectively explore theories and empirical research on aesthetics, creativity, and various art forms. The core goal of the journal is to promote a deeper understanding of the process of artistic creation, perception, and appreciation, and to explore the relationship between art and human experience through scientific methods.

This journal covers a wide range of disciplinary fields, including anthropology, psychology, neuroscience, semiotics, and sociology, among others, whose research findings contribute to analyzing artistic phenomena from different perspectives. For example, psychological research can reveal cognitive mechanisms in the process of artistic creation and appreciation, neuroscience research can explore the impact of artistic experience on brain activity, and sociological research can analyze the role of art in social structure and culture.
