Claymation art therapy in early phase psychosis: A qualitative study to explore participants' experiences with the program and identify outcome effects.

Abstract：

AIM:Art therapy is a complex intervention that has mixed evidence for people with schizophrenia and scant research in early phase psychosis. Benefits appear to depend on level of engagement and more qualitative studies are needed to elucidate how it works and what outcomes to measure. The purpose of this study was to determine the feasibility of a 13-week Claymation art therapy group intervention for young adults with early phase psychosis, and to explore participants' experiences with the program and to identify outcome effects. METHODS:Thirteen participants completed the intervention in two cohorts. The participants' experiences were explored through qualitative thematic analysis of individual interviews postintervention and at 3-month follow-up. RESULTS:The program had a 62% retention rate and an 80% attendance rate. Qualitative analysis of postintervention and 3-month follow-up interviews identified six themes that described program elements: (a) Claymation valued; (b) film screening fostered support; (c) getting to know each other through art; (d) connecting with others with lived experience; (e) opportunity to build skills; and (f) supportive facilitators. Five themes were identified as outcome effects from both time points: (a) stress relief; (b) self-discovery; (c) pride in art; (d) confidence and hope; and (e) engagement in meaningful activity postintervention. Two themes were unique to the 3-month follow-up interviews: (a) Claymation was enabling and (b) showing my film. CONCLUSIONS:This group Claymation art therapy intervention effectively engaged people with early phase psychosis and the qualitative analysis identified program elements and outcome effects that can be evaluated in future studies.
