The purpose of this study was to examine the effectiveness of the Nanta-program on psychiatric symptoms, interpersonal relationships, and quality of life (QoL) in forensic inpatients with schizophrenia (SPR).
A quasi-experimental study employing a nonequivalent control group and pre-posttest design was conducted. Participants were 38 forensic inpatients with SPR from South Korea (experimental group=18, control group=20). The intervention was conducted in 12 sessions over 12 weeks, taking 90 min per session. Data were analyzed using χ-test and t-test with SPSS 22.0 program.
The experimental group showed significant improvements in psychiatric symptoms (t=-2.73, p=.010) and slight improvement in interpersonal relationships (t=2.23, p=.0.34) after 12 weeks of group music therapy. There was no significant difference in QoL change between the two groups.
These findings indicate that the Nanta-program is an effective intervention program for improving psychiatric symptoms and interpersonal relationships of prisoners with schizophrenia.
本研究旨在探讨南塔项目对患有精神分裂症的法医住院患者的精神症状、人际关系及生活质量(QoL)的有效性。
采用非等效对照组和前后测设计进行了一项准实验研究。参与者为38名来自韩国的患有精神分裂症的法医住院患者(实验组=18,对照组=20)。干预在12周内进行12次,每次90分钟。使用SPSS 22.0程序进行χ检验和t检验分析数据。
经过12周的团体音乐治疗后,实验组的精神症状有显著改善(t=-2.73,p=0.010),人际关系有轻微改善(t=2.23,p=0.34)。两组在生活质量变化方面无显著差异。
这些发现表明,南塔项目是改善患有精神分裂症的囚犯精神症状和人际关系的有效干预项目。
