Effect of behavioral training of creative art therapy on interpersonal communication in teenagers

Objective To explore the effect of behavioral training of creative art therapy(CAT)on interpersonal communication in teenagers.Methods Eighty teenagers were randomly divided into study group(n=40)and control group(n=40).The study group was received the behavioral training of CAT(12 times,each activity lasts for 120 min),and the control group did not take part in the behavioral training of CAT.The two groups were measured with self-esteem scale(SES),shyness scale(SS)and social anxiety scale for children(SASC)before and after behavior training.SPSS 17.0 software was used for statistical analysis,and t-test variance analysis and Mann-Whitney U test were used to compare the differences between groups or within groups.Results Before and after behavioral training,changes in the SES total score(7.00(5.00,9.75)vs 1.00(0,2.00)),the SS total score(7.00(6.00,12.75)vs 2.00(1.00,3.00)),the SASC total score(5.00(2.00,8.75)vs 0(0,1.00))and two factor scores(3.00(0.25,5.00)vs 1.00(0,1.00),2.00(1.00,4.00)vs 0(0,1.00))in the study group were obviously higher than those in the control group(Z=-7.347,-7.338,-5.841,-4.122 and-5.393,all P<0.05).The score differences of the SASC total score((7.19±3.82)vs(3.21±3.04))and two factor scores((4.00±2.23)vs(1.68±2.05),3.00(1.00,5.00)vs 2.00(0,2.00))of girls were significantly higher than those of boys in the study group(t=-3.611,-3.398,Z=-2.111,P=0.001,0.002,0.035).Conclusion Behavioral training of CAT can improve teenagers'self-esteem,relieve their shyness and social anxiety,as well as promote their interpersonal communication.
