舞动治疗(Dance Movement Thenapy,DMT)是运用动作行为促进参与者情绪、社会性、认知和生理相整合的心理疗法,其对于焦虑情绪干预的显著效果已被以往研究所证实.舞动治疗缓解焦虑情绪的心理机制可以概括为觉察于当下、掌控于身体、释放于压力、链接于情感.通过身体形象、节奏、象征和社交网络等疗愈因子,舞动治疗在儿童、青少年和老年人群体的焦虑症状干预中均能发挥显著效果.未来,舞动治疗干预焦虑情绪的研究和实践应关注焦虑干预的治疗时效、区分焦虑干预的效标症状、注意焦虑抑郁的共病现象以及审视焦虑干预的测量方法等方面.
Psychological Mechanisms and Intervention Studies of Dance Movement Therapy for Anxiety Relief
Dance movement therapy(DMT)is a psychotherapy that utilizes movement to promote the emotional,social,cognitive,and physiological integration of participants.Previous studies have confirmed its effectiveness in anxiety intervention.The psychological mechanisms of DMT for anxiety relief can be summarized as being aware of the present,gaining control through the body,releasing stress,and connecting feelings.With healing factors such as body image,rhythm,symbolism,and social networks,DMT plays a significant role in intervening in anxiety symptoms in children,adolescents,and the elderly.Future research and practice on DMT for anxiety intervention should focus on the treatment efficacy,differentiating criterion symptoms,paying attention to the comorbidity of anxiety and depression,and scrutinizing the methods of measuring anxiety intervention.
