Primary-school-based Art Therapy: A mixed methods comparison study on children’s classroom learning
'Informa UK Limited', 2020Co-Authors: Holttum S., Mcdonald A.Abstract:Background: In the UK an estimated one in ten primary school pupils have diagnosable mental health problems which may impact their education. Aims/context: This study examined a primary-school-based Art Therapy service for children experiencing social, emotional and mental health difficulties to assess the intervention’s acceptability and possible changes in classroom learning. Methods: A mixed methods before-and-after study was conducted with 25 children in Art Therapy and a comparison group of 25 children per subject for reading, writing and maths attainment. A focus group with 10 teachers and interviews with 37 children were used to examine perceptions of Art Therapy and classroom learning. Results: Academic attainment was similar between the Art Therapy and comparison children. Both groups’ learning rate resembled that of national minimum expectations. Children and teachers perceived Art Therapy to be helpful for engagement with classroom learning, relationships with teachers and peers, and learning time. Conclusions: Further research is needed to develop this primary-school-based Art Therapy programme, assess transferability, and examine wider educational outcomes. Implications for practice: Primary-school-based Art Therapy may be pArticularly helpful when it is perceived as: a safe place, sessions being social and fun, facilitates coping strategies, expressing, thinking and talking, as well as making Artwork

creating an Art Therapy anger management protocol for male inmates through a collaborative relationship
International Journal of Offender Therapy and Comparative Criminology, 2012Co-Authors: Mary J Breiner, Laura Tuomisto, Elizabeth Bouyea, David E Gussak, Dean AufderheideAbstract:A training pArtnership was established with the Florida DepArtment of Corrections in 2003, and over the ensuing years, Art Therapy graduate student interns from Florida State University’s Graduate Art Therapy Program have been placed in local prisons at different times. Recently, the Art Therapy interns worked closely with the supervising psychologist in one prison to alleviate and redirect aggression by integrating cognitive-behavioral techniques with Art Therapy directives. The Art Therapy interns and the psychologist developed a curriculum using a combination of workbook exercises and Art tasks to develop and increase the pArticipants’ anger management skills, the Art Therapy Anger Management Protocol. This Article provides an overview of Art Therapy in prison, the cognitive-behavioral approach to anger management with prison inmates, and how Art Therapy was used to support this approach. Examples of completed Art tasks designed to correspond with the workbook curriculum are presented. Overall, this ar...

effects of Art Therapy with prison inmates a follow up study
Arts in Psychotherapy, 2006Co-Authors: David E GussakAbstract:Abstract A pilot study conducted to measure the effects of Art Therapy with prison inmates (Gussak, 2004) demonstrated marked improvement in mood. The results of this study encouraged a quantitative follow-up study the following year. This study used the Formal Elements Art Therapy Scale (FEATS) and the Beck Depression Inventory-Short Form (BDI-II) as pre and post-test assessments to assess the effects that Art Therapy had on an adult male prison population, specifically on decreasing depression and improving socialization skills. A control group pre-test/post-test design was implemented for this study. An experimental group members attended group Art Therapy for eight weeks, one session per week. They also completed the assessments prior to, and at the end of the sessions. A control group did not receive the services but still completed the pre and post-test assessments during the same amount of time. The changes in BDI-II scores and the scores of all 14 categories of the FEATS from pretest to posttest (i.e., post-test score – pre-test score) were calculated and the differences were analyzed using independent-sample t tests to find differences between the experimental and control groups. The BDI-II results supported the assumption that Art Therapy was effective in reducing depression in the adult male inmates. The results from the FEATS, however, did not yield supportive data. Thus, although the Art Therapy was effective with the experimental population, the quantitative results were mixed. This Article concludes with a case vignette that supports the notion that Art Therapy was effective, and an explanation on why the FEATS may not have been as effective a measurement tool in this pArticular study.

Art Therapy in Special Education with Orientation on the Treatment of Speech Therapy
Univerzita Karlova Pedagogická fakulta, 2020Co-Authors: Kotinská VeronikaAbstract:This work deal with application of Art Therapy and gradually focuses on individual fields of special education and extends application of Art Therapy within speech Therapy. The aim of theoretical pArt of this work is to define Art Therapy as a pArt of special pedagogy. It describes development and intersection of three different fields: visual Art, psychoTherapy and education. It defines the term of special indication of Art Therapy and describes the specifics of Art Therapy in individual fields of special education. It focuses on the main features of drawing of people with disabilities. Furthermore, it focuses on the speech Therapy area in which it strives to highlight some of the parallels between the development of drawing and the developmental stages of character drawing and the developmental stages of speech. It deals with the application of Art Therapy within individual categories of NKS. The aim of research pArt was to find out the principles of content and formal changes in a figure's drawing regarding to changing of clinical picture during two diagnoses incurred based on organic brain damage. Qualitative methods were chosen in the research consisting of gathering data from two case studies and its interpretation. Within the framework of pArtial goals, it tries to stimulate the language...Práce se zabývá uplatněním Arteterapie v oblasti speciální pedagogiky. Postupně se zaměřuje na jednotlivé obory speciální pedagogiky a více rozvádí aplikovatelnost Arteterapie v rámci logopedické péče. V teoretické části si klade za cíl definovat Arteterapii jako součást speciální pedagogiky. Popisuje vývoj a prolínání tří různých oblastí: výtvarného umění, psychoterapie a výchovy. Vymezuje termín speciální indikace Arteterapie a přibližuje specifika Arteterapeutického působení v jednotlivých oborech speciální pedagogiky. Zaměřuje se také na hlavní rysy kresebného projevu osob s postižením. Dále se orientuje na oblast logopedie, kde se snaží zviditelnit některé paralely mezi vývojem kresby i vývojovými stádii kresby postavy a vývojovými stádii řeči. Zabývá se uplatněním Arteterapie v rámci jednotlivých kategorií NKS. Výzkumná část si za hlavní cíl klade zjistit, jak se mění obsahová a formální stránka v kresbě postavy vzhledem k měnícímu se klinickému obrazu, u dvou diagnóz vzniklých na podkladě organického poškození mozku. Pro průběh výzkumného šetření byly zvoleny metody kvalitativního výzkumu, kde se jednalo o sběr a interpretaci získaných dat pomocí dvou případových studií. V rámci dílčích cílů se pak snaží o stimulaci jazykových rovin řeči s primárním zaměřením na obsahovou stránku řeči i...Katedra speciální pedagogikyFaculty of EducationPedagogická fakult
