Such forms of therapy found effective for the treatment of a variety of diagnoses include art therapy, activity therapy etc. Specifically, music therapy has been a newer advancement in the realm of CAM’s which  has shown great promise in treating diagnoses such as depression, anxiety and the like. As these treatments are gaining popularity the prevalence of substance abuse has become of epic proportion.  Many individuals diagnosed with Substance Use Disorder (SUD) will also suffer from co-occurring conditions such as depression. These same individuals appear to not respond to man traditional substance abuse therapies which is why CAMs are currently being explored as a way to increase  motivation and as an alternative to traditional treatment modalities. Certain studies have shown that music therapy can act as an effective treatment on its own or coupled with a traditional approach, such as contingent therapy. While these findings are promising it is important to notes that these studies are usually  conducted with researcher made instruments which have not been evidenced  as valid or reliable and the sties that have established some degree of effective did so utilizing clinical interviews and parameters of depression and not self-inventory of the experience  of the client. This outcome study is intended to establish the efficacy of music therapy as an effective treatment of co-occurring depression utilizing a valid and reliable self-inventory instrument  ( Hamilton Depression Inventory). The null hypothesis purports that there will be no significant difference between the scores of the same group of participant  pre-treatment  and post-treatment.     REVIEW MUSIC THERAPY PPT#2SEster Discussion Board w/Ester PPTThis research proposal examines whether time spent engaged in formal sports activity correlates with increased symptoms of eating disorders.  There has been a large amount of research conducted about the prevalence of eating disorders among athletes, eating disturbances among female athletes, and bodily dissatisfaction associated with sports participation; however, a correlational study which examines increased symptoms of eating disorders with participation in higher caliber sports was not to be found. This study attempts to fill that gap. In doing so, the Eating Attitudes Test-26 survey will be sent to coaches of cross-country, track, and swim and dive teams among 18 Division 1 school in North Carolina in hopes that 400-500 athletes will choose to participate by completing the survey. The survey will be completely anonymous and voluntary; participants will have a week to complete it in the environment of their choosing via internet. Completed surveys will be sent directly to the researcher for review of the data. The hypothesis is that there is a strong correlation between time spent engaged in strenuous sports and increased symptoms of eating disorders; the null suggests that there is no significant correlation between the two. This study utilizes an independent t test.
