The practitioner's body of knowledge : dance/movement in training programmes that address violence, conflict and peaceAcaron Rios, Thania January 2015 (has links)
This interdisciplinary thesis examines the role of dance/movement in training programmes, which address peace, violence, conflict and trauma. Despite the growing literature and scholarly interest in embodied practices, few training programmes address dance/movement peace explicitly, identify shared beliefs or make connections between movement behaviour and decision-making. The research questions explore how dance/movement trainers experience, implement and conceptualise embodied processes that enable the transformation of conflict, particularly concerning interpersonal and/or intergroup violence. In order to investigate this question, an 'internal' analysis of relations and practices amongst its practitioners progresses to an 'external' analysis of contributions to arts-based peace practices and peacebuilding. Twelve semi-structured interviews were conducted with experienced trainers working internationally who use artistic, therapeutic and educational approaches to peace practices. The practitioners' curricula and training materials were examined using thematic analysis and qualitative analysis software (NVivo). The data analysis results in a map of shared beliefs, positionality and boundary shifts amongst the respondents, and proposes an exploration of practices applicable to multiple settings and client groups. This thesis presents new research in Communities of Practice (CoP) theory with artistic communities. It also deepens previous research on dance/movement peace practices and movement analysis, which sustains peaceable and violent actions can be understood through conscious and/or unconscious movement decision-making processes. The thesis concludes that embodied processes involve reflexive and enactive interventions, and proposes analyses of spatial relations, symbolic enactment and relational nonverbal interactions as key contributions of dance/movement. These embodied processes challenge 'conventional' forms of knowledge transmission and the arts' constant pressure for legitimisation. The thematic exploration of shared practices and beliefs therefore integrates movement analysis and social theory to present an interdisciplinary contribution to embodied analyses of violence.

Dance therapy and self-concept change in psychiatric patientsHall, Cheryl Jeanne 01 January 1982 (has links)
This study investigated the effects of various forms of therapy (individual, occupational, and dance) on self-concept. Subjects were 29 psychiatric patients at Providence Medical Center who volunteered to participate in this study. The Tennessee Self-Concept Scale (TSCS) was used to measure self-concept both at time of admission and prior to discharge. The data were analyzed in a step-wise multiple regression to determine which of the various forms of therapy are the best predictors of self-concept at second TSCS application. The results of the step-wise multiple regression did not support the hypothesis that exposure to dance therapy would be a significant predictor of self-concept prior to discharge.

Vliv tanečně pohybové terapie na psychomotorické projevy pacientů s Parkinsonovou nemocí / The influence of the Dance Movement Therapy on psychomotor symptoms of Parkinson's Disease patientsPokorný, Jan January 2018 (has links)
Title: The influence of the dance movement therapy on psychomotor symptoms of Parkinson's disease patients Objectives: The aim of this thesis is to evaluate the effects of dance movement therapy on postural instability and other motor and non-motor symptomatology of patients with Parkinson's disease. Changes are evaluated by using MDS-UPDRS and Computerized Dynamic Posturography (NeuroCom Smart EquiTest System). Another goal is to provide comprehensive information about dance movement therapy and other dance therapies promoted abroad and to highlight a possibility of their use as a non-pharmacological treatment of Parkinson's disease symptoms. Methods: This pilot study involved eight late onset Parkinson's disease patients at an average age of 68,87±6,69 years. Changes in their postural stability and motor and non-motor symptoms of Parkinson's disease were evaluated after the completion of two months of intensive dance movement therapy. Observed parameters were evaluated by using MDS- UPDRS and the Computerized Dynamic Posturography Smart EquiTest System created by the NeuroCom company, before and after the therapeutic programme. For effective assessment of the therapy, statistical methods (the Student's paired t-test and the Wilcoxon rank sum test) were used along with the rate of clinical...

Dance and self concept change in womenAnderson, Robin Dale 01 January 1979 (has links)
Numerous authors in the field of dance therapy have proposed that dance movement employed as a psychotherapeutic tool yields positive gains in mental health for participants. Self concept is frequently cited as the mechanism affecting these gains. In order to explore the relationship of dance movement alone to self concept fifteen college women were tested with the Tennessee Self Concept Scale before and after participation in a course of dance with those of nineteen women enrolled in lower division psychology courses. An analysis of covariance showed no significant changes in self concept scores in either group. It was concluded that self concept change is not a necessary outcome of dance training and that other variables in the therapy setting may affect gains in mental health.

The use of dance as a tool for personality integrationRankin, Barbara Throckmorton 01 January 1976 (has links)
This study is exploratory in nature. The material was highly individualistic and subjective, so I have deviated from the traditional empirical research approach. My purpose is to grasp what kind of person was attracted to attending a dance workshop. How does Halprin’s use of dance assist people in learning about themselves? What kinds of information do people learn about themselves through her dance process? What techniques does Halprin combine with the medium of dance to get results? Are people enhanced, or better integrated by the Halprin process? Finally, my intention was to be stimulated by the Halprin process to explore possible uses of dance in combination with my traditional psychodynamic, verbal approach to social casework.

Att läka från traumatisering : - att komma ur fryspunkten med psykosomatisk behandling / To heal from traumatization : - to get out of the freezing point with psychosomatic treatmentMarcus, Svedberg, Weronika, Swarzynska January 2022 (has links)
Syftet med föreliggande kvalitativa studie var att undersöka terapeuters erfarenheter av läkningsprocessen av trauma under psykosomatisk behandling för att öka förståelsen för varför kroppen bör inkluderas i traumabehandlingen. De sex semistrukturerade intervjuer analyserades genom tematisk innehållsanalys. Resultatet genererade i fem teman: Den terapeutiska relationen, Intuitiv kommunikation, Kroppens budskap, Att låsa upp låsningar och Att smälta det som varit fryst. Resultatet visade vikten av att inkludera hela den mänskliga upplevelsen i behandlingen, vilken psykosomatisk behandling möjliggör. Vidare visade resultatet att traumat har satt spår i kroppen som förmedlar dessa spår genom låsningar och spänningar. I syfte för att nå dessa spårs ursprung får klienten under läkningsprocessen varsamt komma ur det frysta tillståndet genom rörelser, beröring och ett fysiskt lyssnade. Studien visade även på att det är när klienten börjar lyssna till sina kroppssensationer som man kan nå dess ursprung och smälta det som har varit fryst och vidare återgå till ett grundläggande tillstånd av avspänning och trygghet.

Dance/Movement Therapy in Fibromyalgia Patients : Aspects and Consequences of Verbal, Visual and Hormonal AnalysesBojner Horwitz, Eva January 2004 (has links)
<p>This thesis presents hormonal, emotional, physical and visual status changes in female fibromyalgia (FMS) patients after treatment with the Creative Art therapy; dance/movement therapy, compared to controls. FMS is a syndrome of chronic pain involving musculoskeletal aches, stiffness and pain where perturbations in the stress-axis and high scores on somatic anxiety and muscular tension also have been found. The study comprises thirty-six female FMS patients divided in treatment- and control group. Serum concentrations of the hormones prolactin, dehydroepiandrosterone sulphate (DHEA-S), cortisol and neuropeptide Y (NPY) in plasma and cortisol in saliva were analysed. Different verbal self-rating scales concerning well-being, pain, personality and life events among other things have been used. Assessments of the condition of the FMS patients affected by video-viewing were evaluated together with interviews about the self-perception phenomenon of video viewing (a phenomenological hermeneutic method). </p><p>The results of the study show that six months of dance/movement therapy appears sufficient to improve both psychological and physical function, as indicated by the visual analyses. The video interpretation technique (VIT) and self-figure drawings captured treatment effects that were not evident from verbal scales or reflected in hormone levels. The biological markers probably need a longer treatment period to activate the HPA axis and its inter-related hormones and peptides. </p><p>The use of different assessment techniques most likely has affected the treatment outcome. Difficulties perceiving information through verbal/cognitive modalities as well as alexithymia are factors discussed. The VIT may be useful for early identification of maladaptive movement patterns and as a mirror of facial and bodily expressions of emotions. In conclusion, this study indicates that both the dance/movement therapy and the VIT have had great influence on the FMS patient’s well-being, self-perception and perception of pain. </p>
