A non-randomised trial of an art therapy intervention for patients with haematological malignancies to support post-traumatic growth
2012
The aim of this study was to determine the effect of art therapy on post-traumatic growth in patients with haematological malignancies in a non-randomised trial ( n = 36, intervention group; n = 129, control group).
