This pilot study explored the effects of a psychosocial empirically supported arts drawing protocol for trauma on chronic pain reduction, positive and negative affect, as well as relationships and resources. Additional aims were to explore memory reconsolidation as a change factor in art therapy. The study examined three- and four-drawing protocols and two resource reminder conditions to evaluate which version of the protocol was most helpful. Significant improvements were found in ratings of pain, depression, anxiety, relationship quality, and helplessness from pre-test to post-test, and in the frequency of experiencing pain, depression, fear, anger, relationship problems, and endorsed resources. There were significant differences between groups for anger, and a time by resource reminder condition interaction effect for fear. Exploratory analyses showed similar results for those who participated in the study before and during the first three months of the COVID-19 pandemic, and online versus in-person participation. However, pre-pandemic participants reported an increase in frequency of hopefulness over time, yet participants during the pandemic reported a decrease in frequency of experiencing hopefulness over time. Also, online participants reported a greater decrease in hopefulness frequencies when compared to in-person participants. There were no significant differences between the two versions of the protocol or the memory reconsolidation reminder conditions.

这项初步研究探索了心理社会支持的艺术绘画方案对创伤的缓解对慢性疼痛减轻，正面和负面影响以及关系和资源的影响。其他目标是探索记忆再巩固作为艺术疗法中的变化因素。该研究检查了三图和四图协议以及两个资源提醒条件，以评估该协议的哪个版本最有帮助。从测试前到测试后，疼痛，抑郁，焦虑，关系质量和无助的等级得到显着改善，经历疼痛，抑郁，恐惧，愤怒，人际关系问题和认可的资源的频率得到了显着改善。愤怒之间的组之间存在显着差异，而通过资源提醒条件交互作用的时间则因恐惧而存在显着差异。探索性分析显示，对于那些在COVID-19大流行前三个月之前和期间以及在线和面对面参与研究的参与者，研究结果相似。但是，大流行前的参与者报告说，随着时间的流逝，希望的频率增加，而大流行期间的参与者报告，随着时间的推移，人们对希望的希望的频率降低。此外，与亲自参加者相比，在线参加者报告的希望率下降幅度更大。协议的两个版本或内存重新整合提醒条件之间没有显着差异。大流行前的参与者报告说，随着时间的流逝，希望的频率增加，但是大流行期间的参与者报告，随着时间的流逝，希望的频率降低。此外，与亲自参加者相比，在线参加者报告的希望率下降幅度更大。协议的两个版本或内存重新整合提醒条件之间没有显着差异。大流行前的参与者报告说，随着时间的流逝，希望的频率增加，但是大流行期间的参与者报告，随着时间的流逝，希望的频率降低。此外，与亲自参加者相比，在线参加者报告的希望率下降幅度更大。协议的两个版本或内存重新整合提醒条件之间没有显着差异。
