The Embodied Cultural Competence Framework provides a concise method to explore past (history), present state, and develop future intentions related to bias and capacity for healthy and adaptive relating, and delivery of clinical interventions. This framework was developed by Board-Certified Dance/Movement Therapists, Licensed Professional Counselors, and Licensed Clinical Professional Counselors. The framework uses concepts from dance/movement therapy theory related to the dimensional scale from the work of Rudolf Laban, as well as organizational psychologist Chris Argyris’s Ladder of Inference. Grounding the framework in embodied exploration and creating an understanding of thought processes produces an expanded capacity for self-awareness and yields an opportunity for exploring race, culture, and bias on a multitude of levels. With intentionality towards compassion, growth, and honoring body knowledge, this framework explores personal cultural constructs from an embodied perspective for furthering the development of cultural competence.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":44552,"journal":{"name":"AMERICAN JOURNAL OF DANCE THERAPY","volume":"46 1","pages":"67 - 84"},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2024-03-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140369578","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"DMT Groups for Female Inmates with Drug Dependence at a Detention Center in Taiwan","authors":"Pei-Shan Tsai","doi":"10.1007/s10465-023-09396-3","DOIUrl":"10.1007/s10465-023-09396-3","url":null,"abstract":"<div><p>This action research explores the implementation of dance/movement therapy (DMT) groups for female inmates in a detention center in Taiwan who have a history of drug use. It addresses two research inquiries: (1) Assessing the effectiveness of DMT groups integrating the process model of positive emotional regulation in improving emotional well-being and stress management, and (2) Identifying key components for an effective DMT program tailored to female inmates. For the purpose of the study, two sequential DMT groups were conducted from July to October 2021, employing a mixed methods approach which included: a) Body Appreciation Scale, b) Emotion Regulation Questionnaire (ERQ), c) Life Satisfaction Scale (LSS) and d) Five-Item Brief Symptom Rating Scale (BSRS-5) alongside group notes, session reports and personal notes. Quantitative analysis revealed a significant improvement in body acceptance scores. Qualitatively, the leader’s guidance in promoting breath awareness and regulation played a pivotal role in helping participants establish a connection with their bodily sensations and emotions, facilitating emotional self-regulation. While quantitative data indicated a modest increase in Life Satisfaction Scale scores, qualitative findings showcased participants’ shift towards discovering happiness within themselves and their positive experiences. Group discussions emphasized the advantages of reframing cognitive patterns to uncover moments of joy within their restricted environments. The qualitative analysis demonstrated participants’ adaptability and emotional response modulation during group activities, contributing to a supportive and engaging group atmosphere. Participants cherished the opportunity for free interaction within the group, fostering genuine connections through expressions of gratitude and physical contact. Additionally, the group served as an outlet for emotional release and self-expression, providing a stark contrast to the limitations of their daily lives. This study highlights the importance of observing actions within the context, the transition from individual to interpersonal emotional regulation, and the application of the BREATH Model, based on six core themes: breathing, regulation of energy, expanding movement repertoire, awareness, togetherness, and help. It sheds light on the potential benefits of DMT for female inmates who used drugs. Recommendations for future research are provided.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":44552,"journal":{"name":"AMERICAN JOURNAL OF DANCE THERAPY","volume":"46 2","pages":"135 - 157"},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2024-03-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142410625","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

There are few discourses on the ways in which authentic movement can be practiced as psychotherapy. In this article there is an elaboration of the discipline itself with a focus on the mover and witness roles, which are then transformed into those of the client and therapist respectively. The discipline is analyzed as a form of relational integrative psychotherapy for individual clients. Examples are provided to illustrate the concepts discussed. The importance of the therapeutic alliance, i.e., the relationship between client and that of the therapist is emphasised. Relational integrative psychotherapy and authentic movement are two powerful and distinct therapeutic approaches that, when woven together in practice, provide a firm platform for complementing each other in four possible ways.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":44552,"journal":{"name":"AMERICAN JOURNAL OF DANCE THERAPY","volume":"46 1","pages":"34 - 51"},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2024-03-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142409750","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As a growing field, DMT continues to expand its application to different populations. This literature review analyzed the implications of DMT application for individuals who are dying. While the application of DMT with diverse populations has been studied, the literature regarding the application of DMT with dying individuals is slim. Medical, spiritual, and emotional treatment during death have received considerable attention in academic literature, however, the application of many body-based psychological treatment interventions has not been studied as thoroughly. Literature concerning the cultural attitudes towards death in Western and non-Western cultures, mental illness and death, and the literature that has been published thus far concerning DMT and death were analyzed as a framework to better understand the potential application of DMT with dying individuals. While research still needs to be conducted in order to best apply DMT in the treatment of dying individuals, the research points to strong potential for the creation of further evidence-based care.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":44552,"journal":{"name":"AMERICAN JOURNAL OF DANCE THERAPY","volume":"45 2","pages":"150 - 168"},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2023-10-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"50453548","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
