Abstract

In this review, we mapped the existing academic literature on facilitation factors in community-based, non-professional adult singing groups who gather for fun and well-being. Group singing is an effective community-based intervention offering participants therapeutic benefits. Social prescription to group singing is gaining popularity however little is known about those people who undertake the facilitation role. This review was conducted in accordance with Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) methodology for scoping reviews and reported in line with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses extension for Scoping Reviews (PRISMA-ScR) guidelines. Nineteen articles published across 14 peer reviewed journals and six countries since 2014 were included in the review. Results have been presented in a descriptive manner, supported by tables and Supplementary Material. A gap in role definition was established from the available literature. Key factors of facilitation were presented under the themes of musicality, identity, and facilitation approaches each with subthemes. The accumulated research recommendations found in eight of the included studies have been reported. The findings of this review can therefore inform future research questions and support facilitation practice in extant and developing community-based singing programmes.

社区团体歌唱中的促进因素：范围审查

在这篇综述中，我们绘制了现有的学术文献，以社区为基础，非专业成人歌唱团体聚集在一起娱乐和幸福的促进因素。集体歌唱是一种有效的社区干预，为参与者提供治疗益处。社会对集体歌唱的规定越来越受欢迎，但对那些承担促进作用的人知之甚少。本综述按照乔安娜布里格斯研究所（JBI）的范围评价方法进行，并按照系统评价和荟萃分析扩展范围评价（PRISMA-ScR）指南的首选报告项目进行报告。自2014年以来，在6个国家的14种同行评议期刊上发表的19篇文章被纳入审查。结果以描述性的方式呈现，并附有表格和补充材料。根据现有文献，角色定义存在差距。促进的关键因素在音乐性、身份和促进方法的主题下提出，每个主题都有子主题。8项纳入的研究中发现的累积研究建议已被报道。因此，本综述的发现可以为未来的研究问题提供信息，并支持现有和正在开发的社区歌唱项目的促进实践。

期刊介绍： Psychology of Music and SEMPRE provide an international forum for researchers working in the fields of psychology of music and music education, to encourage the exchange of ideas and to disseminate research findings. Psychology of Music publishes peer-reviewed papers directed at increasing the scientific understanding of any psychological aspect of music. These include studies on listening, performing, creating, memorising, analysing, describing, learning, and teaching, as well as applied social, developmental, attitudinal and therapeutic studies. Special emphasis is placed on studies carried out in naturalistic settings, especially those which address the interface between music psychology and music education.
