This collaborative practitioner research study emerged from music therapists' concerns about the value of improvisational, music-centred music therapy for young adults with severe learning disabilities (SLDs), given the long-term nature of such work. Concerns included the relevance, in this context, of formulating, and reporting on, therapeutic aims, development, change; and working in 'goal-oriented' way. Focus groups with the young adults' families and a range of professionals suggest that, rather than leading to developmental change, long-term shared therapeutic musicking provides young adults with ongoing opportunities for experiencing confidence and self-esteem, with feelings of shared acceptance and success, and also provides young adults and their families with opportunities for developing and sustaining friendships. In addition, families experienced meeting other parents and carers in the communal reception area as supportive and countering their isolation. Focus groups assigned intrapersonal, relational and social values to long-term music therapy for young adults with SLDs.
这项合作性的从业者研究源于音乐治疗师对以即兴创作、以音乐为中心的音乐疗法对重度学习障碍（SLD）青年成人的价值的担忧，鉴于此类工作的长期性。担忧包括在此背景下制定和报告治疗目标、发展、变化的相关性；以及以“目标导向”的方式工作。与青年成人的家庭和一系列专业人员进行的焦点小组讨论表明，长期的共享治疗性音乐活动并非带来发展变化，而是为青年成人提供持续体验自信和自尊的机会，带来共同接纳和成功的感觉，还为青年成人及其家庭提供发展和维持友谊的机会。此外，家庭在公共接待区与其他父母和照顾者会面时，感到这种会面具有支持性，减轻了他们的孤立感。焦点小组为针对患有重度学习障碍的青年成人的长期音乐疗法赋予了个人、关系和社会价值。
