Online group music therapy: proactive management of undergraduate students' stress and anxiety.

Finnerty R, McWeeny S, Trainor L. · Frontiers in psychiatry · 2023 · Randomized controlled trial report · double blinding not verified

Original publication · Original publication · Original publication · Original publication · Original publication

Recorded summary

Immediate session stress/anxiety decreased; changes did not clearly differ from verbal therapy. Six-week perceived stress did not improve; cortisol rose in control but remained stable in therapy groups.

Recorded limitations

Under-recruited and attrition; unusable HRV; remote COVID context. No proof of equivalence despite authors' similar-effect language.

Evidence and provenance

Chapter Trust Factor uses a minimum of three distinct qualifying studies. Publication records retain their own evidence and assessment.
