Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to examine music therapists' perceptions of guitar use and training in clinical practice. Three major research questions dealt with guitar use, guitar training, and clinicians' confidence using the guitar in clinical practice. A quasi-random sample of 1000 board-certified music therapists were invited to complete an online questionnaire with 27 questions in the areas of guitar use, guitar training and experience, and the importance of 28 specific skills. One hundred fifty music therapists (n = 150) responded. Major findings include: (1) clinicians appear to use the guitar frequently and, on average, see guitar skills as more important than piano and percussion skills; (2) respondents tended to feel better prepared when they had more than one semester of guitar training and many expressed a desire for more guitar training, specifically in the areas of stylistic playing and improvisation; (3) respondents who were trained in guitar by music therapy faculty felt their training was more clinically relevant than those trained by non-music therapy faculty; (4) music therapists are generally confident in their guitar skills and the factors that predict high confidence levels need to be further explored and; (5) a majority of music therapists enter their academic programs with little or no guitar experience and this appears to be especially true for females. Discussion includes the relationship of these results to previous research, implications for training and practice, and recommendations for further research.

Part one of the book introduces the reader to historical and important functional information about the instrument, and describes how to play the guitar with proficiency and versatility. Parts two and three address clinical uses of guitar-playing by therapists and clients. In addition to reviewing guitar references within the music therapy literature, creative and innovative techniques are provided which will allow clinicians to take advantage of the instrument's wide range of adaptability. Examples are given that demonstrate ways in which therapists can use guitar to accompany songs and improvisations, as well as to make guitar-playing accessible to clients of varying physical and cognitive abilities.

Book Synopsis Therapeutic Uses of Rap and Hip-Hop by : Susan Hadley
Download or read book Therapeutic Uses of Rap and Hip-Hop written by Susan Hadley and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-05-22 with total page 419 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In perceiving all rap and hip-hop music as violent, misogynistic, and sexually charged, are we denying the way in which it is attentive to the lived experiences, both positive and negative, of many therapy clients? This question is explored in great depth in this anthology, the first to examine the use of this musical genre in the therapeutic context. The contributors are all experienced therapists who examine the multiple ways that rap and hip-hop can be used in therapy by listening and discussing, performing, creating, or improvising. The text is divided into three sections that explore the historical and theoretical perspectives of rap and hip-hop in therapy, describe the first-hand experiences of using the music with at-risk youth, and discuss the ways in which contributors have used rap and hip-hop with clients with specific diagnoses, respectively. Within these sections, the contributors provide rationale for the use of rap and hip-hop in therapy and encourage therapists to validate the experiences for those for whom rap music is a significant mode of expression. Editors Susan Hadley and George Yancy go beyond promoting culturally competent therapy to creating a paradigm shift in the field, one that speaks to the problematic ways in which rap and hip-hop have been dismissed as expressive of meaningless violence and of little social value. More than providing tools to incorporate rap into therapy, this text enhances the therapist's cultural and professional repertoire.

Download or read book The Presence and Absence of Music as a Cue for the Reciprocal Inhibition of Guitar Performance Anxiety written by Cori Lois Pelletier and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The primary purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of music assisted systematic desensitization (MASD) on guitar competency, observed anxiety, and self-perception of anxiety during guitar performance with music therapy and music education students. Students were divided into an experimental and control group. The experimental group received two sessions of (MASD) after the first guitar performance and the control group received no intervention. Guitar performances were evaluated for level of competency, level of observed anxiety, and self-perception of anxiety. Statistical comparisons of both groups indicate that there was a significant difference between the guitar competency scores of the two groups (p = .051), with greater gains on guitar competency made by the experimental group. No statistical difference was found between groups on the level of observed anxiety or self-perception of anxiety. Subsequent analysis indicates that the experimental group had significantly lower anxiety from the first to second guitar performance (p = .037) while the control group did not (p = .477). The control group, however, had a significant decrease in level of perceived anxiety from the first to second guitar performance (p = .017) while the experimental group approached significance (p = .15). The secondary purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between the experimental subject's participation in MASD with guitar competency evaluations, observed anxiety, and self-perception of anxiety during the guitar performances. Graphic analysis of participants observed responses during MASD are presented within six case studies. Clinical implications of the results and guidelines for future research are discussed.

Book Synopsis The Effect of Group Music Therapy on Perceived Self-efficacy of Undergraduate Students Pursuing the Helping Professions by : Laura A. Streit
Download or read book The Effect of Group Music Therapy on Perceived Self-efficacy of Undergraduate Students Pursuing the Helping Professions written by Laura A. Streit and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Research indicates that therapeutic interventions designed to target levels of self-efficacy serve useful for college students who wish to pursue helping professions in the role of counselor, therapist, or nurse. Group music therapy targeting self-efficacy goals with undergraduates has rarely been researched. In this study, two undergraduate students at a southwestern Virginia university participated in a music therapy intervention. The General Self-Efficacy Scale and the Outcome Rating Scale were used to determine whether perceived levels of self-efficacy changed throughout the course of the intervention. A mixed methods design was used to compare the different phases of data collection and to determine any relationships between the quantitative and qualitative data collected. No significant differences were found between pretest and posttest scores of the two quantitative measures. The qualitative data indicated that the subjects experienced changes in their perceptions of music therapy, especially concerning their understanding of personal benefits from music therapy, and in levels of self-confidence. The subjects also showed an increase in positive feeling states as they became familiar with the music therapy process. Implications for further research are discussed.
Book Synopsis Neuro-Education and Neuro-Rehabilitation by : Eduardo Martínez-Montes
Download or read book Neuro-Education and Neuro-Rehabilitation written by Eduardo Martínez-Montes and published by Frontiers Media SA. This book was released on 2016-11-04 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the last decade, important discoveries have been made in cognitive neuroscience regarding brain plasticity and learning such as the mirror neurons system and the anatomo-functional organization of perceptual, cognitive and motor abilities.... Time has come to consider the societal impact of these findings. The aim of this Research Topic of Frontiers in Psychology is to concentrate on two domains: neuro-education and neuro-rehabilitation. At the interface between neuroscience, psychology and education, neuro-education is a new inter-disciplinary emerging field that aims at developing new education programs based on results from cognitive neuroscience and psychology. For instance, brain-based learning methods are flourishing but few have been rigorously tested using well-controlled procedures. Authors of this Research Topic will present their latest findings in this domain using rigorously controlled experiments. Neuro-rehabilitation aims at developing new rehabilitation methods for children and adults with learning disorders. Neuro-rehabilitation programs can be based upon a relatively low number of patients and controls or on large clinical trials to test for the efficiency of new treatments. These projects may also aim at testing the efficiency of video-games and of new methods such as Trans Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) for therapeutic interventions in children or adolescents with learning disabilities. This Research Topic will bring together neuroscientists interested in brain plasticity and the effects of training, psychologists working with adults as well as with normally developing children and children with learning disabilities as well as education researchers directly confronted with the efficiency of education programs. The goal for each author is to describe the state of the art in his/her specific research domain and to illustrate how her/his research findings can impact education in the classroom or rehabilitation of children and adolescents with learning disorders.
