Key Words Schizophrenia; Symptoms; Art therapy; Meta-analysis; Bias;
Core Tip This meta-analysis examines data from randomised controlled trials looking at whether art therapies reduce the symptoms of schizophrenia–particularly negative symptoms. Our study indicates that art therapies do not significantly reduce total symptoms or positive symptoms. While we found a ‘small’ therapeutic effect on negative symptoms, the effect appears to reflect two forms of bias – first, no effect emerges when trials use blind outcome assessment; second, the trials also point to the possibility of publication bias.
