Abstract

Background: Cancer is the second largest cause of child mortality after accidents worldwide. Childhood cancers have an average incidence in Iran, with 176 cases in one million people. The objective of this study was to examine the efficacy of music therapy on anxiety, self-esteem, and social adjustment of children with cancer in Kerman in 2019. Methods: A quasi-experimental method with a pre-test and post-test design with a control group was used in this study. The statistical population of research included all children with cancer admitted to Afzalipour hospital in Kerman (Iran) in 2019, and thirty children were selected by the convenience sampling method and then randomly divided into experimental (n=15) and control (n=15) groups. Data were collected using the children’s Multidimensional Anxiety Scale, the Coopersmith Self-esteem Inventory, and California Social Adjustment Scale. Finally, the data were analyzed using SPSS22 through the multivariate analysis of covariance. Results: The results indicated that music therapy was effective in reducing anxiety (P<0.001, F=179.29) while increasing self-esteem (P=0.001, F=120.60) and social adjustment (P=0.001, F=48.56) in children with cancer.

音乐治疗对克尔曼地区癌症儿童焦虑、自尊及社会适应的影响

背景:癌症是全世界儿童死亡的第二大原因，仅次于意外事故。伊朗儿童癌症的平均发病率为每100万人中有176例。本研究的目的是研究2019年克尔曼癌症儿童的音乐治疗对焦虑、自尊和社会适应的影响。方法:采用准实验方法，采用前测和后测设计，并设对照组。研究统计人群为伊朗克尔曼市Afzalipour医院2019年收治的所有癌症患儿，采用方便抽样法选取30名患儿，随机分为实验组(n=15)和对照组(n=15)。使用儿童多维焦虑量表、库珀史密斯自尊量表和加州社会适应量表收集数据。最后，通过协方差多变量分析，采用SPSS22对数据进行分析。结果:音乐治疗能有效降低癌症患儿的焦虑(P<0.001, F=179.29)，提高自尊(P=0.001, F=120.60)和社会适应(P=0.001, F=48.56)。结论:音乐治疗在癌症患儿的焦虑、自尊和社会适应方面取得了成功，可以应用于缓解癌症患儿的心理问题
