This book was released on 2005 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Diagnosing depression in children and adolescents is more challenging than diagnosing adults because depression can manifest itself differently in the younger person. Failure to make the diagnosis of depression can delay appropriate treatment and/or make the problem more severe. This study's goal was to assess the relationship between the Children's Depression Inventory (CDI) and the Silver Draw-a-Story (DAS) test, therefore establishing the validity of the DAS in assessing depression. The sample consisting of adolescents (N=25) with depression-spectrum diagnoses completed both tests. DAS ratings, made by art therapists, were highly reliable and correlated with CDI scores ar r=.41 (p
Book Synopsis The Silver Drawing Test and Draw a Story by : Rawley Silver
Download or read book The Silver Drawing Test and Draw a Story written by Rawley Silver and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2010-06-21 with total page 416 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Art can be an invaluable means of communication. It can bypass language and impairment and allow for the expression of thoughts or feelings too difficult to communicate with words. In The Silver Drawing Test and Draw a Story, Rawley Silver draws on her years of experience using therapeutic art with hearing-impaired children, stroke patients, and others with learning disabilities or emotional disturbances. The book’s original art assessments use stimulus drawings to elicit responses that provide access to a patient’s emotions and attitudes toward themselves and others, while also testing for the ability to solve problems and convey ideas. Offering tools to assess cognitive skills that often escape detection on verbal tests of intelligence or achievement, the book helps in identifying those at risk for violent behavior or masked depression. Thoroughly updated from Silver’s earlier works, this new book includes techniques to assess aggression and depression that may lead to violence in schools and suicide among children and adolescents. It also addresses important gender and age differences, incorporating new information and updated studies, and it offers an in-depth look at the developmental procedures involved in these art assessments. As education for mental health professionals now includes art therapy more regularly, Silver has provided an invaluable resource for assessing emotional and cognitive content.
Book Synopsis Aggression and Depression Assessed Through Art by : Rawley Silver
Download or read book Aggression and Depression Assessed Through Art written by Rawley Silver and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2005-07-05 with total page 239 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A study of more than two hundred children using Rawley Silver's draw a story test showed a strong correlation between aggression or depression and certain types of artistic narratives; meanwhile, unbeknownst to Silver, a pair of Russian therapists were using Silver's assessment tests in a similar fashion with Russian children and achieving similar results. Aggression and Depression Assessed Through Art: Using Draw-A-Story to Identify Children and Adolescents at Risk came about as a result of these studies, but the book's scope goes beyond the numbers to investigate the connections between a child's expression through drawing and his violent behavior. The text, written mostly by Silver but with chapters contributed by therapists from both the United States and Russia, compares drawings by children who have already exhibited violent behavior with those who have not, thus exploring the potential of the test for use as an early identifier of children and adolescents at risk for depression or inappropriate aggression. Other chapters examine the changes in emotional state revealed by a child's responses to standard art assessment tests, as well as the cross-cultural applications of Silver's tests. Silver is recognized as one of the earliest developers of art therapy in the United States, and by providing mental health professionals with a tool to help identify and treat disturbed children this book represents yet another of her major contributions to the field.

Download or read book Draw-a-story written by Rawley A. Silver and published by Ablin Press. This book was released on 1993 with total page 111 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is an urgent need for early identification of depressed individuals so that they may be found and helped in time. Childhood depression is often masked by problems in school, and as a result, these children usually go undiagnosed or misdiagnosed. It has been found that drawings by depressed patients have distinct patterns which are rated closer to normal controls than drawings by patients with organic mental disorders or schizophrenia. Statistically significant differences were found between drawings by depressed and control group patients in attributes such as integration, logic, realism, and showed problem-solving skills. The Draw a Story (DAS) instrument was developed as a semi-structured interview technique and as a measure for assessing depression. A 1988 study (n=350) and a 1993 study (n=107) suggest that strongly negative responses to the DAS task are associated with clinical depression and may be associated with depression among adolescents and men. Eighty-two figures reproduce the DAS instrument, subject drawing samples, and data. Five tables produce data and statistical analysis. Three appendices present an analysis of differences between depressed and nondepressed subjects; age and gender differences in attitudes toward solitary subject (SDT); and male and female attitudes toward solitary subjects and relationships in response to the SDT. Contains 29 references. (TS)

Book Synopsis The Multiple Self-States Drawing Technique by : Susan Parente
Download or read book The Multiple Self-States Drawing Technique written by Susan Parente and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-05-28 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book introduces the Multiple Self-States Drawing Technique (MSSDT), a creative, transdiagnostic, clinical assessment tool and treatment intervention for child and adolescent clients. The MSSDT provides clinicians and patients with a novel opportunity to bridge the gap in youngsters’ selves-awareness of discrete emotional states. Dr. Parente teaches clinicians how to guide clients through this contemporaneous version of projective figure drawing in order to discover and explore trauma-based, dissociative, and emotionally dysregulated self-states and to focus on adaptive, resilient states of well-being. Specific, step-by-step instructions are provided, and case illustrations demonstrating the proposed clinical advantages of the method are presented. Chapters show how this experiential, psycho-educational, arts-based activity can be flexibly applied to a broad range of ages and clinical populations and how using the MSSDT may support mental health professionals’ clinical work. Through this manual, clinicians will learn how to help clients foster a beneficial relational encounter, promote therapeutic self-expression, and develop an enhanced self and other awareness.

Book Synopsis The Validity of the Draw-a-story Assessment to Assess Depression in College Freshmen by : Patricia Corsetti
Download or read book The Validity of the Draw-a-story Assessment to Assess Depression in College Freshmen written by Patricia Corsetti and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study was designed to evaluate the relationship between Silver's Draw-A-Story (D-A-S) and the Beck Depression Inventory II to support the reliability and the validity of the D-A-S as an assessment for depression in college freshmen. It is hypothesized that there will be a positive correlation between the D-A-S and the BDI-II in this population. The BDI-II and D-A-S were administered to 28 students in their first semester of college. In order to determine a relationship between the measures and to assess the inter-rater reliability, a Pearson-Product Moment Correlation Coefficient was calculated. Although the statistical analysis illustrated high reliability, validity was not established. Therefore, this is an indication that the D-A-S is not a valid measure in assessing levels of depression in this population. Implications, plausible explanations, and recommendations are discussed.

Book Synopsis Validating the Draw-A-Story Assessment as a Measure of Depression Using the Beck Depression Inventory-II. by : Kristen M. Wojcoski
Download or read book Validating the Draw-A-Story Assessment as a Measure of Depression Using the Beck Depression Inventory-II. written by Kristen M. Wojcoski and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study investigated the validity of Rawley Silver's Draw a Story (DAS) assessment as a measure of depression. The DAS was administered to 70 volunteer participants (ages 19-65 years) who also completed the Beck Depression Inventory, second edition (BDI-II). A negative correlation between the two measures would support the validity of the DAS as a measure of depression. A marginally significant negative correlation (r=.20, p=.094) was obtained. The correlation may have been attenuated by the small number of participants with high levels of self-reported depression. However, these results suggest that the DAS in its present form should not be used independently as a measure of depression. The DAS rating scale might benefit from modifications in order to become a more valid instrument for this purpose.
