Abstract
La depresión se constituye en uno de los mayores problemas de salud mental a nivel mundial y nuestro país no está exento de dicha problemática, esto significa un enorme reto para los profesionales del área y una búsqueda de tratamientos accesibles, innovadores, sostenibles y efectivos, por lo que la musicoterapia podría, de alguna manera, dar respuestas a estas demandas, ya que como lo señalaría Bruscia K. en 1988, entre sus objetivos terapéuticos estarían la restauración, el mantenimiento y el acrecentamiento de la salud tanto física como mental. Es con este propósito que la presente investigación a través de un diseño Cuasiexperimental, pretende demostrar que la denominada Musicoterapia grupal activa disminuye los niveles de depresión. Para alcanzar dicho objetivo, se ha estructurado un programa de intervención basado por un lado en los principios propuestos por Gastón T, y Poch S., y en el principio de Iso (Identidad sonoro musical) de Altshuler I. y Benenzon R.; y por otro, en la metodología grupal activa, (Poch S. Alvin J. y Satinosky S.) que ha sido implementado en el Hospital de Psiquiatría de la CNS de la ciudad de La Paz en un grupo de pacientes con depresión, en un tiempo estimado de cuatro meses, a la vez de haberse realizado un análisis comparativo con un grupo de control, obteniendo resultados estadísticos significativos que confirman la hipótesis de investigación y que permiten avizorar la incursión de este novedoso recurso terapéutico en el tratamiento de la depresión en nuestro contexto sociocultural.
Depression is one of the biggest mental health problems worldwide and our country is not exempt from this problem, this means a huge challenge for professionals in the area and a search for accessible, innovative, sustainable and effective treatments, for what music therapy could, in some way, provide answers to these demands, since as Bruscia K. indicated in 1988, among its therapeutic objectives would be the restoration, maintenance and enhancement of both physical and mental health. It is with this purpose that the present investigation through a quasi-experimental design, aims to demonstrate that the named active group music therapy reduces the levels of depression. To achieve this goal, a music therapy intervention program has been structured based on the principles presented by Gaston T. and Poch S. and on the principle of Iso (Sound musical identity) principle from Altshuler I. and Benenzon R.; and on the other hand, in the active group methodology (Poch S., Alvin J. and Satinosky S.) that has been implemented in the Psychiatry Hospital of the CNS in a group of patients with depression, in an estimated time of four months, as well as a comparative analysis with a control group, obtaining significant statistical results that confirm the research hypothesis and that allow foreseeing the incursion of this novel therapeutic resource in the treatment of depression in our sociocultural context.
