New peer-review instrument for Eurythmy Therapy validated
Eurythmy Therapy (ET) is an anthroposophic movement therapy. In an validation study the new peer-review instrument "Anthroposophic Artistic Movement Assessment for Eurythmy Therapy (AART-ASSESS-EuMove)" was tested. Items with sufficient interrater reliability formed the following subscales: mindfulness in movement, motor skills, and walking pattern. The AART-ASSESS-EuMove showed sufficient internal consistency and correlates with patient-reported outcome. The new instrument broadens methodological options of questionnaire validation and contributes to the understanding of ET. The article is published open access:
