Abstract

Objective: Arts-based research (ABR) refers to the use of art in the research process to help generate, interpret and/or communicate knowledge. We used ABR principles to adapt a centre-staging method to complement a more traditional qualitative approach to evaluate participants' views on dental service reform.

Methods: We asked five individuals in the dental health sector in the National Health Service in Wales to select objects to depict their views on the current reform process and their ideal reform process. This process took place alongside traditional semi-structured interviews with the participants.

Results: There were three marked differences in the centre-staging process as compared to the interviews: (1) there was a greater use of symbolism by the participants, (2) the participants put a greater focus on the process of change and (3) the participants were more likely to reveal the emotions underlying their assessments of the reform process.

Conclusions: The arts-based approach adopted appeared to be highly accessible and has the potential to be used in a wide range of applications.

在应用卫生保健中使用基于艺术的研究:来自威尔士NHS牙科合同改革评估的一个例子。

目的:以艺术为基础的研究(ABR)是指在研究过程中使用艺术来帮助产生，解释和/或交流知识。我们使用ABR原则来调整中心分期方法，以补充更传统的定性方法来评估参与者对牙科服务改革的看法。方法:我们要求威尔士国家卫生服务机构牙科卫生部门的五个人选择对象来描述他们对当前改革过程的看法和他们理想的改革过程。这个过程与传统的半结构化访谈一起进行。结果:与访谈相比，中心阶段过程有三个显著差异:(1)参与者更多地使用象征主义，(2)参与者更关注变革过程，(3)参与者更有可能揭示他们对改革过程的评估背后的情绪。结论:所采用的基于艺术的方法似乎是高度可及的，具有广泛应用的潜力。
