本研究探讨了通过音乐引导意象(GIM)和放松技术对状态和特质焦虑水平的影响。音乐治疗治疗的个体由来自大学好撒玛利亚人中心的Bridgeway化学依赖/酒精中毒单位的志愿者(工作人员和居民)组成。该研究在康复机构进行,有16名受试者,其中一个实验组参加了10次治疗,另一个对照组没有接受任何治疗,目的是确定GIM训练是否会对感知的压力水平产生影响。测试结果表明,实验组的情境压力感知(状态焦虑)有所下降。数据分析表明,各组之间的状态评分差异具有统计学意义。来自实验对象的口头报告和观察也证实了这些发现,因为参与实验组的所有对象在治疗后表现出感知压力和焦虑的显著减少。总体而言,结果表明GIM可能对处理慢性压力和焦虑的人有一些益处。
This research investigated the effects of Guided Imagery through Music (GIM) and relaxation techniques on state and trait anxiety levels, Individuals selected for music therapy treatment consisted of volunteers (staff members and residents) from the Bridgeway Chemical Dependency/Alcoholism Unit at University Good Samaritan Center. The study took place at the rehabilitation facility with 16 subjects and involved an experimental group that participated in 10 treatment sessions and a control group that received no treatment, The purpose was to determine whether or not the GIM training would have an effect on perceived stress levels. The dependent measures consisted of the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI) as well as individual self-reports and evaluations, Test results showed that the experimental group experienced a decrease in perceived situational stress (measured as state anxiety). Analysis of data indicated that the differences in state scores between groups were statistically significant. Verbal reports and observations from experimental subjects also corroborated these findings in that ail subjects participating in the experimental group expressed a marked reduction in perceived stress and anxiety following treatment, Overall, the results indicate that GIM may be of some benefit to persons dealing with chronic stress and anxiety.
