Area of Science:

  • Integrative medicine and mental health research.
  • Psychological interventions and patient outcomes.

Background:

  • Art therapy has a historical role in patient treatment.
  • Growing scientific interest necessitates a comprehensive assessment of active visual art therapy (AVAT).

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the association between active visual art therapy and health outcomes.
  • To compare AVAT's effects across diverse patient groups and control conditions.

Main Methods:

  • Systematic literature search across 11 databases (before March 2021).
  • Inclusion of randomized clinical trials comparing AVAT with non-AVAT controls.
  • Data synthesis using narrative summaries, forest plots, and random-effects meta-analyses.

Main Results:

  • Included 69 studies with ~4200 participants (ages 4-96).
  • Meta-analyses (50 studies, 2766 participants) showed AVAT associated with improved outcomes in 18% of measures.
  • Standardized mean differences indicated a positive effect of AVAT (SMD 0.38 and 0.19).

Conclusions:

  • Active visual art therapy demonstrates potential therapeutic benefits for specific health outcomes.
  • The overall quality of included studies was low, indicating a need for further rigorous research.
  • High-quality studies are essential for integrating AVAT effectively into routine clinical practice.
