Florence Cane developed which technique?

• A. Kinesthetic warm up
• B. Verbal processing
• C. Dream analysis
• D. Free association

Answer: (A)

The main idea tested is using movement to prime artistic expression. Florence Cane developed kinesthetic warm-up as a pre-art-making routine to release bodily tension, reduce self-criticism, and open pathways to nonverbal expression. This approach helps clients access subconscious material through the body before they begin drawing or painting, which is different from methods that rely on talking (verbal processing), interpreting dreams (dream analysis), or letting thoughts flow freely in words (free association). By engaging movement, rhythm, and physical exploration, kinesthetic warm-up lowers inhibitions and supports spontaneous, expressive artwork. That makes it the best fit for what Cane introduced.
