  1. Communicative Musicality, Emotions and Therapeutic Effect of the Functional Music Therapy for Children with Autism and ADHD

  2. Methodof FMT • The Functional Music Therapy for children and adults with neuropsychological impairments has been developed by LarsHjelm in Sweden since 1975

  3. Therapist-ClientInteraction • The interaction between therapist and client occurs through music and gestures of body • Therapist plays piano and a client gains access to drums, cymbals, and blow instruments. The musical pieces are perceived and performed by a client in the setting of a nurturing non-verbal communication.

  4. TherapeuticEffect • As a result of the treatment, client’s cognitive abilities (attention, memory and associative skills), behavioural and motor self-control, self-confidence, and social-communicative abilities can be developed

  5. Casefor interdisciplinaryresearch • The FMT offers an empirical case for the new area of interdisciplinary research on the socio-emotional psychobiology of musicality and further investigation of the mind-body question and of the problem of sympathy

  6. ResearchProblem • It is necessary to present the systematic empirical evidence and to clarify processes and mechanisms by which the therapeutic effect is achieved in the FMT.

  7. TheAim • This interdisciplinary study aims at presenting scientific evidence and explanation of the emotional and bodily (re)/actions of children with autism and ADHD to musical representations of social interaction during the FMT treatment.

  8. Multidisciplinary team • Social psychology • Neurochemistry • Medicine • Music Therapy

  9. Methods 1) Questionnaire Evidence from the key caregivers of clients 2) Biomarker analysis Neurological evidence on bodily reactions is collected. The aim is to investigate a secretion of oxytocin, cortisol, adrenalin, noradrenalin and PEA after music therapy.

  10. Methods 3) Spectrographic analysis Emotional and bodily reactions of clients on musical representations of interactions during the session are analysed through a spectrographic analysis of selected videos. 4) Semi-structured qualitative interviews Interviews with three therapists are conducted in the middle phase or/and the end of the treatment concerning typically “successful” and “difficult” cases

  11. Research Questions • Client-centred questions • Therapist-centred questions • Therapy-centred questions

  12. Conceptual Framework • Theoretical points of departure in the study are based on the interdisciplinary framework including the concepts developed in social psychology of emotion and human sociality, affective neuroscience, music psychology, and clinical practice of music therapy.
