Der mangler evidens for gavnlige effekter af “kunstbaserede metoder” i sundhedssammenhænge. Dokumentationen er begrænset og metodologisk problematisk, implementering kræver et langt bedre grundlag, og flere kritiske perspektiver er afgørende.
Translated title of the contribution: Lack of evidence for benefits and effects of “arts-based methods” in health contexts. The documentation is limited and methodologically flawed, implementation within the healthcare system requires far more robust evidence, and more critical perspectives are crucial.Kaasgaard, M., McCrary, M., Grebosz-Haring, K., Kreutz, G., Musgrave, G., Bathke, A., Pickard, A., Holt, N., Davies, C., Clift , S. & Skov, M., 31.
