Art Therapy as a Cross-Cultural Means To Assess Psychosocial Health in Homeless and Orphaned Children in Kiev.
Arrington, Doris; Yorgin, Peter D.
Art Therapy: Journal of the American Art Therapy Association, v18 n2 p80-88 2001
Reports on medical evaluation processes and art-based assessments used in identifying psychosocial health of children in orphanages in Kiev, Ukraine. Because American health professionals, including an art therapist/psychologist, had actually come to treat orphans, they were invited to state shelters never before open to foreigners. Includes fifteen art-based assessment illustrations and children's traumatic life histories. (BF)
