    The Use of a Survey to Identify Types of Self-Care That Graduate Art Therapy Students Engage in For Well-Being
    (2022) Quinn, Makenzie; Misluk, Eileen; Leeds, Chelsea
    This study aimed to identify types of self-care that graduate art therapy students engage in for their overall well-being. To learn more, 108 current graduate art therapy students completed an online survey including questions related to demographics, well-being, self-care, and barriers. The anticipated outcome that graduate art therapy students will use response art and art-making less than other types of self-care was true for response art but not for art-making. The study found that leisure activity was the most common type of self-care used among graduate art therapy students. This study resulted in ample amounts of results that can imply the importance of self-care to graduate art therapy students and could be helpful in further research towards beneficial ways to incorporate self-care within individuals' daily lives for overall well-being.
