Abstract

This study aims to determine the effectiveness of art therapy in reducing depressive symptoms in inmates with a history of suicide attempts at Kerobokan Class IIA Prison. This study used a quasi-experimental method where one group was measured before and after receiving the intervention. The study participants were four inmates who still showed symptoms of depression and had a history of suicide attempts. Data collection was carried out before and after the intervention using the Beck Depression Inventory-II (BDI-II) and Person Picking an Apple from a Tree measuring instruments, which were then scored using the Formal Elements of Art Therapy Scale (FEAST). The intervention provided was 10 sessions of art therapy intervention with a cognitive-behavioral approach. Based on the results of the analysis of BDI-II score data using paired sample t-test, the results obtained (t(3)=10.139, p=0.002 (p<0.05) which means there is a significant difference between the level of depression of the research subjects before and after the intervention. Based on the FEAST score data, the results obtained t(3)=-1.639, p=0.2 (p>0.05) which means there is no significant difference between the level of depression of the research subjects before and after the intervention. The results of the study also show that Art Therapy has a large effect in reducing the symptoms of depression in prisoners (effect size=5.070). It can be concluded that Art Therapy is considered an effective intervention in reducing the symptoms of depression in prisoners.
