Abstract

ABSTRACT Self-expression is central to mental well-being and mental health therapy. Art therapy offers a wide range of expressive mechanisms, allowing individuals to process their emotions when traditional therapies prove unsuccessful. However, a lack of expertise or comfort with artistic expression, along with cost and waiting times, may hinder one's ability to receive needed mental health support. Creative machines can offer novel therapeutic approaches enabling the bereaved to engage in creative expression as and when needed. In this paper, we apply a co-creative songwriting system, ALYSIA, as a new form of therapy for those who had recently suffered the loss of a loved one. We evaluate the utility of this creative system in aiding bereaved individuals through user testing. The utility of collaborative creative systems for adaptation to bereavement is discussed and may have implications for other therapeutic applications.

为丧亲之痛提供音乐创意支持工具

自我表达是心理健康和心理健康治疗的核心。艺术疗法提供了广泛的表达机制，允许个人处理他们的情绪，当传统疗法被证明是不成功的。然而，缺乏专业知识或对艺术表达的舒适感，加上费用和等待时间，可能会阻碍一个人获得所需的心理健康支持的能力。创造性的机器可以提供新颖的治疗方法，使失去亲人的人能够在需要的时候进行创造性的表达。在本文中，我们应用了一个共同创作的歌曲创作系统，ALYSIA，作为一种新的治疗形式，为那些最近遭受失去亲人的人。我们通过用户测试来评估这个创造性系统在帮助失去亲人的个人方面的效用。讨论了协作创造系统对丧亲适应的效用，并可能对其他治疗应用产生影响。
