On Hierarchical Inter-relationships amongst the Challenges Faced while Implementation of Play Therapy amongst School Children in India | Chapter 04 | Recent Research Advances in Arts and Social Studies Vol. 9

 

Play Therapy [PT] has its roots in psychoanalysis and child psychology. The earliest forms of PT can be traced back to the work of Sigmund Freud and his followers, who used play and creative activities as a means of exploring a child's unconscious thoughts and feelings. Play therapy can be used to address a wide range of issues, including behavioral problems, anxiety, depression, trauma, and relationship difficulties. The present research tries to explore the challenges faced while implementing play therapy among school children in India.

Play Therapy for Children's Behavioural Issues: Pre-post Intervention Analysis | Chapter 5 | Disease and Health: Research Developments Vol. 1

This chapter examines the effectiveness of play therapy in reducing behavioral problems among children aged 3 to 7 years enrolled in pre-primary education at an unaided school. Behavioral issues were identified through assessments by qualified educational counselors. A total of 42 students participated in structured play therapy sessions. To evaluate the therapy's impact, a pre-test and post-test design was employed, with assessments conducted before and after the intervention. The findings reveal a significant reduction in behavioral problems following play therapy, highlighting its potential as an effective intervention for early childhood behavioral issues.
