Music and mental health: Using qualitative approaches to understand how and why music can support recovery
A growing body of evidence links music with mental health and wellbeing. Music is inherently complex, being received and experienced subjectively, and research has aimed to uncover not only outcome effects but also processes and mechanisms of effect. This presentation illustrates how qualitative approaches have been incorporated into two mixed-method studies in order to investigate how and why music may support recovery among mental health service users and among women with symptoms of postnatal depression. Against a backdrop of the quantitative evidence of effect, the presentation will explore how the participants experienced making music and the ways in which they related this to their recovery. The presentation will conclude with provocations designed to spark discussion regarding the nature of evidence and the place of qualitative approaches in arts (and other complex) interventions.
