“…22,58 This raises the question of whether art therapy is based on a specific model 54 and defined clearly enough by the BAAT. 6 It is recommended that this definition is reviewed and that future researchers operationalise AT accordingly, to enable replication and application of results.…”

“…57 A clear definition is important because art therapy is a 'complex intervention' consisting of several elements that interact with the environment and people engaging in it. 22,58 This raises the question of whether art therapy is based on a specific model 54 and defined clearly enough by the BAAT. 6 It is recommended that this definition is reviewed and that future researchers operationalise AT accordingly, to enable replication and application of results.…”

This narrative review examines the effectiveness of Art Therapy (AT) for people with psychosis and explores whether art therapy is a meaningful and acceptable intervention. Seven electronic databases were searched for empirical papers that concerned the use of art therapy with adults with psychosis that were published from 2007 onwards. The search identified eighteen papers. The highest quality quantitative articles provided inconclusive evidence for the effectiveness of art therapy. The highest quality qualitative articles indicated that therapists and clients considered art therapy to be a beneficial, meaningful, and acceptable intervention, although this was based on limited studies. There is a discrepancy between the quantitative evidence regarding art therapy effectiveness and the qualitative evidence highlighting the value given to it by clients and therapists. Theoretical, clinical, and methodological issues are discussed in light of the development of more robust research, which is needed to corroborate individuals' experiences and guide evidence-based practice. AbstractThis narrative review examines the effectiveness of Art Therapy (AT) for people with psychosis and explores whether art therapy is a meaningful and acceptable intervention.Seven electronic databases were searched for empirical papers that concerned the use of art therapy with adults with psychosis that were published from 2007 onwards.

Theoretical, clinical, and methodological issues are discussed in light of the development of more robust research, which is needed to corroborate individuals' experiences and guide evidence-based practice. This support for the helpfulness of art therapy is rooted in theory and clinical experience and is weakly substantiated by rigorous, controlled research. National guidelines on the treatment of specific conditions, are based on the highest quality scientific evidence, which includes Randomised Control Trials (RCTs) and systematic reviews which have at least one RCT. 13By comparison, studies which use cohort, case-control, cross-sectional, or single case designs are considered to provide weaker evidence. 14The effectiveness of art therapy is primarily established through RCTs. In an early Cochrane review, the lack of RCTs prevented conclusions from being drawn about the effectiveness of art therapy for people with schizophrenia. 15 Nevertheless, the two reviewed studies 16,17 contributed The growing interest in art therapy is also evident through recent systema...

“…Recientemente el interés por sus efectos en población no clínica crece y comienza a publicarse bajo el escrutinio de actividades como la escritura, la pintura y la música (Dalebroux, Goldstein & Winner, 2008). A pesar de la diversificación en su uso, la falta de una fundamentación de su costo-beneficio, conocimiento de contraindicaciones o la identificación de las variables psicológicas que varían bajo las intervenciones terapéuticas o en otras condiciones pareciese limitar tanto su aceptación como desenvolvimiento teórico (Crawford & Patterson, 2007;Muri, 2007).…”

Se evalúa el impacto de las instrucciones dadas para el uso de actividades gráficas y escritura expresiva como una forma de apoyo en el manejo del estrés y las emociones a partir de seis grupos experimentales con treinta estudiantes universitarios. Los efectos fueron estimados mediante la adaptación mexicana de la Escala de Estrés Percibido y la adaptación de Escala de Afecto Positivo y Negativo. Los grupos fueron similares en su estrés percibido y en emociones en el tiempo 1. Los resultados indican que ambas variables mejoran tras la intervención (tiempo 2), mostrando diferencias entre los grupos. Se concluye que es necesario evaluar el tipo de instrucciones en ambientes experimentales y clínicos considerando estas diferencias. Palabras clave: diseño experimental; terapia artística; estrés percibido; regulación emocional. Stress and emotion regulation with graphic activities and expressive narrativeThe present study evaluated instructions in graphic and expressive writing tasks as stress and emotion regulation activity aids. Six experimental groups were composed of thirty university students. Effects were measured with the Mexican versions of the Perceived Stress Scale (PSS) and the Positive and Negative Affect Schedule (PANAS). The groups were similar in
