Stability of aesthetic preference of object position on pictures

Summary/Abstract: The aim of this work is to give answers to question is aesthetic preference of object position on pictures stabile, or is there a change of aesthetic preference with increase of number of objects and with the change of picture orientation (horizontal-vertical). In conducted experiments subjects had a task to put one, two or three circles on three different shapes of backgrounds (square, golden rectangle, rectangle), in such way that given configuration is the most beautiful one in their own opinion. In some experiments backgrounds were observed horizontally, and in other vertically. When the backgrounds were horizontal, aesthetic preference of golden section position did not change with increase of the number of circles. When the backgrounds were vertical golden section position was preferred one in cases with one and two circles, while in the experiment with three circles aesthetic preference of golden section position decreased. In most situations circles were ordered on backgrounds in such way to balance each other. Distance between two circles on same shapes of backgrounds, on repeated situations, is relatively constant in both orientations of backgrounds.
