Article Title:Aesthetic as an evolution criteria

Abstract:
The evaluation of psychotherapies is rather complicated. The use of an artistic media could help in order to evaluate these psychotherapies. For a long time the psychiatrists have been interested in artistic works of their patients as they could offer informations on their psychological status. We think that the meaning of these works is mainly interesting in the course of their psychotherapy. In order to develop this idea we will first look the literature on evaluation in art therapy. Then will be exposed the results of an aesthetic test comparing between the works of patients and those of a matched normal population. (C) 2003 Editions scientifiques et medicales Elsevier SAS.
