In this article, we argue that, for the study of Education in the Arts discipline to continue advancing, we must outline the eff ects of forms of arts education, off ered in certain contexts, on specifi c domains of children’s socio-emotional development. We explain why formulating precise hypotheses about the eff ects of arts education on children’s socio-emotional development requires a diff erentiated defi nition of each menu of the academic year or arts education activity in question, as well as a consideration of the immediate and broader contexts in which the grade of the (a) student or activity takes place. Then, there are many examples of programs and activities related to Arts Education reaching children, thus giving, within this article, the considerations that allow the refi nement of hypotheses about the impact of arts education on children’s socio-emotional development.
