Aiming for change : exploring the benefits of music therapy on patients diagnosed with schizophrenia in a Turkish university hospital
Tekijät
Päivämäärä
2016Although music therapy is an evidence-based and effective therapy method in clinical
psychiatric settings all around the world, the literature on music therapy use in Turkish
clinical settings is extremely limited. This study aims to show the clinical benefits of music
therapy in a Turkish university hospital, to enable further research and promote the
recognition of music therapy as a valid clinical method in this country. A study was
conducted within a clinical setting with 6 patients currently under standard care due to
diagnoses of schizophrenia or schizophrenia-like disorders by the hospital staff. The
participants attended 20 music therapy sessions, which met twice a week, with pre-post
clinical psychological tests applied around the sessions. The results reveal that group music
therapy supports the well-being of out-patients diagnosed with schizophrenia. Significant
changes on general functionality, personal and social performance, depression levels,
difficulties in emotion regulation concerning emotional awareness and decrease in the level of
submissive and helpless ways of coping with stress are reported. Session notes consisting of
the therapy crew’s observations support the statistical analysis of these benefits. These
findings show that music therapy can be beneficial on multiple dimensions for people
diagnosed with schizophrenia in a Turkish university hospital; and therefore, more
implication opportunities are suggested.
