ABSTRACT

With the increase of mental health problems among veterans and active duty service members since the terrorist attacks on 9/11, the need to provide effective mental health treatments has grown. This study focused on the experiences of thirty-seven active service members, veterans, and their families participating in community-based arts activities. Four themes were uncovered suggesting the experience was positive and expressing thoughts and feelings through art-making was therapeutic. Results indicated that art expression provided a way to reflect on the effects on the country, families, and individuals affected by 9/11. Understanding how participants experienced the event provides better understanding of how expressive arts events addressing grief and combat-related loss can be a beneficial component of community engagement and integration.

纪念9/11的社区艺术治疗计划

摘要

自从9/11恐怖袭击以来,随着退伍军人和现役军人心理健康问题的增多,提供有效心理健康治疗的需求日益增长。这项研究的重点是参加社区艺术活动的37名现役军人,退伍军人及其家人的经历。发现了四个主题,表明这种体验是积极的,通过艺术创作表达思想和感情是有益的。结果表明,艺术表达提供了一种方式来反思对受9/11影响的国家,家庭和个人的影响。了解参与者如何体验该事件可以更好地理解表达艺术事件如何解决悲伤和与战斗相关的损失可以成为社区参与和整合的有益组成部分。
