Description

Yin-Hui Hong and co-authors present a 2024 trial of dance movement therapy for nursing students in Taiwan. Compassion is core to nursing, yet few studies test how to teach it. Students in the therapy group were set against a yoga group, with schools assigned at random.

Fifty-nine students finished and gave scores. The dance group gained more on total compassion action scores. Gains showed in kindness to self and in openness to kindness from others. Effect sizes were modest but clear. The authors say moving with others in a guided way may build the body sense behind care. They suggest dance based work as a teaching tool in nurse training.
