Suitability of the art therapy room and changes in outcome measures in the education system

Abstract:
ABSTRACT This study examined the relationship between art therapists’ perceptions of their art therapy room in schools, and related outcome measures for 55 students. We posited that there would be a positive correlation between art therapists’ satisfaction and their perception of the suitability of the rooms in which they provide therapy, and their clients’ outcome measures. Thirty-six therapists completed a questionnaire about their perceptions of their therapy room. Students completed questionnaires on self-perception and loneliness, and their parents and homeroom teachers reported on behavioural problems before and after therapy. There were no correlations between the art therapists’ perceptions of the room and the outcome measures. However, there were correlations between improvement in outcome measures as reported by parents and teachers and single items; e.g. the location of the room, the suitability of its equipment, and perceiving the material and furnishings as positive. Plain-language summary The art therapy room provides a framework for therapeutic work and is designed to meet the needs of the theoretical approach and personality of the therapist, the characteristics of the client population, and the institution in which the therapy takes place. The therapy room has a crucial impact on the initial relationship between the therapist and the client and is perceived as an environment that acts as both container and containment during the therapeutic process. Although the physical conditions of the therapy room are likely to play a role in the success of therapy, scant research has explored this issue, in particular in the school setting. The current study examined the relationship between art therapists perceptions of their art therapy room in schools, and related outcome measures for 55 1st to 7th graders. We expected a positive correlation between art therapists satisfaction and their perception of the suitability of their therapy rooms and their clients outcome measures. We asked 36 therapists to complete a questionnaire on the physical conditions of their therapy room. Their student clients completed questionnaires on self-perception and loneliness, and their parents and homeroom teachers reported on behavioural problems before and after therapy. No main correlations were found between the art therapists perceptions of the room and the outcome measures. However, there were correlations between improvement in outcome measures as reported by parents and teachers and single items, including the location of the room, the suitability of its equipment, and perceiving the material and furnishings as positive.

期刊预警不是论文评价，更不是否定预警期刊发表的每项成果。《国际期刊预警名单（试行）》旨在提醒科研人员审慎选择成果发表平台、提示出版机构强化期刊质量管理。

预警期刊的识别采用定性与定量相结合的方法。通过专家咨询确立分析维度及评价指标，而后基于指标客观数据产生具体名单。

具体而言，就是通过综合评判期刊载文量、作者国际化程度、拒稿率、论文处理费（APC）、期刊超越指数、自引率、撤稿信息等，找出那些具备风险特征、具有潜在质量问题的学术期刊。最后，依据各刊数据差异，将预警级别分为高、中、低三档，风险指数依次减弱。

《国际期刊预警名单（试行）》确定原则是客观、审慎、开放。期刊分区表团队期待与科研界、学术出版机构一起，夯实科学精神，打造气正风清的学术诚信环境！真诚欢迎各界就预警名单的分析维度、使用方案、值得关切的期刊等提出建议！

关于2019年中科院分区升级版（试行）

分区表升级版（试行）旨在解决期刊学科体系划分与学科发展以及融合趋势的不相容问题。由于学科交叉在当代科研活动的趋势愈发显著，学科体系构建容易引发争议。为了打破学科体系给期刊评价带来的桎梏，“升级版方案”首先构建了论文层级的主题体系，然后分别计算每篇论文在所属主题的影响力，最后汇总各期刊每篇论文分值，得到“期刊超越指数”，作为分区依据。

分区表升级版（试行）的优势：一是论文层级的主题体系既能体现学科交叉特点，又可以精准揭示期刊载文的多学科性；二是采用“期刊超越指数”替代影响因子指标，解决了影响因子数学性质缺陷对评价结果的干扰。整体而言，分区表升级版（试行）突破了期刊评价中学科体系构建、评价指标选择等瓶颈问题，能够更为全面地揭示学术期刊的影响力，为科研评价“去四唯”提供解决思路。相关研究成果经过国际同行的认可，已经发表在科学计量学领域国际重要期刊。

《2019年中国科学院文献情报中心期刊分区表升级版（试行）》首次将社会科学引文数据库（SSCI）期刊纳入到分区评估中。升级版分区表（试行）设置了包括自然科学和社会科学在内的18个大类学科。基础版和升级版（试行）将过渡共存三年时间，推测在此期间各大高校和科研院所仍可能会以基础版为考核参考标准。 提示：中科院分区官方微信公众号“fenqubiao”仅提供基础版数据查询，暂无升级版数据，请注意区分。
