Abstract

This study investigates the experiences of people involved in a virtual intervention involving community music and music therapy for individuals with autism. The intervention blends conventional music therapy and community music approaches. During the COVID-19 pandemic, many community music and music therapy projects shifted to an online format and there is a resultant need to understand more about how virtual music interventions may be of benefit for individuals with autism. We report on the design, implementation, and outcomes of one such intervention. Over an 8-week period, community musicians and music therapists ( music facilitators) based in Scotland and America delivered 16 music sessions, which were recorded using the Zoom software. During the sessions the participants wrote, performed, and recorded two songs. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with two of the participants, using video elicitation techniques, and six of the facilitators. Data were analyzed thematically. The intervention was found to (1) enable participants to explore their personal narratives, (2) promote self-perceptions of achievement, and (3) provide evidence of mastery, creativity, and self-expression. An international collaboration made possible by technology enabled facilitators to work remotely and participants to make use of new opportunities for engagement. This article demonstrates how community music practices focusing on participation and music therapy approaches focusing on clinical outcomes can be integrated. We present the online environment as its own social milieu in which creativity and connection can be explored in new ways.
虚拟社区音乐和音乐治疗干预的定性调查:苏格兰-美国合作
本研究调查了自闭症患者参与社区音乐和音乐治疗虚拟干预的经历。该干预措施融合了传统的音乐治疗和社区音乐方法。在 COVID-19 大流行期间,许多社区音乐和音乐治疗项目都转向了在线形式,因此有必要更多地了解虚拟音乐干预如何对自闭症患者有益。我们报告了此类干预措施的设计、实施和结果。在为期 8 周的时间里,苏格兰和美国的社区音乐家和音乐治疗师(音乐促进者)进行了 16 次音乐课程,并使用 Zoom 软件进行了录制。在这些课程中,参与者创作、表演并录制了两首歌曲。利用视频诱导技术,对两名参与者和六名主持人进行了半结构化访谈。对数据进行了专题分析。结果发现,该干预措施(1)使参与者能够探索他们的个人叙事,(2)促进了自我成就感,(3)提供了掌握、创造力和自我表达的证据。技术使国际合作成为可能,从而使促进者能够远程工作,使参与者能够利用新的参与机会。本文展示了如何将注重参与的社区音乐实践与注重临床效果的音乐治疗方法相结合。我们将在线环境作为其自身的社会环境,在这种环境中,可以以新的方式探索创造力和联系。
