CISMA Questionnaire - Questionnaire on the impact of music therapy sessions in adult patients

Abstract

CISMA questionnaire (questionnaire on the impact of the music therapy session on the well-being of adults) could be a useful tool to use in adult patients. It is a pre and post session self-administered instrument. The questionnaire offers two modalities, the numerical CISMA (numeric visual scales) and the categorical CISMA (with five response categories). Choosing the most appropriate modality for each patient depends on the professional´s election.  Assessment areas include physical, emotional and social sphere. It can be applied in adult patients both in the community and hospital settings.
