Brief Summary:
This study examines the effectiveness of an innovative cultural arts program in reducing depressive symptoms and age-related self-stigma among older Chinese as compared to service as usual through a randomized waitlist controlled trial
Detailed Description:
Depressive symptoms are common among community-dwelling older people and prevention and early detection can reduce the incidence of depressive disorders However internalized ageism and stigma of mental illness may disempower older people and impede help-seeking behaviors among those at risk of depression Nonpharmacological interventions may reduce stigma and among different approaches arts-based programs are gaining attention because arts are deemed enjoyable stigma-free and conducive to mental health
This study adopts a waitlist-controlled trial and examines the effectiveness of an innovative cultural art programme to combat internalised ageism and reduce depressive symptoms compared with service as usual Community-dwelling older adults age 60 years and over at risk for depression will be recruited and randomised to receive cultural arts experimental group or service as usual waitlist control group Assessments will be administered by trained researchers at baseline T0 and completion of the 9-session intervention T1 Effectiveness analyses will be based on changes in assessments at different time points between intervention and control groups
