沙遊治療與其相關研究之分析

Analysis of Sandplay Therapy and its Relevant Research

本文主要是對沙遊治療與其相關領域的研究進行文獻分析，主要在探討此領域的多元性與獨特性。本文主要分析從1981 年到2007 年沙遊治療與其相關領域的研究的發展與趨勢。主要的分析結果：（1）此領域常見的研究方法是質性研究、個案研究法、實驗法。（2）此主題的研究是以兒童與青少年為研究對象居多。1990 年前以發展診斷工具為目的研究占多數，但1991 至2000年在研究目的轉向以探討特殊個案沙圖的特徵篇數較多。2001 年後研究目的轉向以歷程及成效研究篇數較多。從研究年代與研究目的可以看出歷程及成效的研究是逐漸的趨勢。(3)國內在此主題不論研究年代、篇數及研究對象多元性都不及國外的發展。（4）根據研究對象特質，非臨床個案、失落與創傷個案占最多。針對研究結果對未來此領域的研究發展提出建議。

In this paper， literature pertaining to the development of sandplay therapy and its relevant research between 1981 to 2007 are analyzed to identify the diversity and uniqueness of the approach as well as the research trend. Results of the literature review indicated: (1) The common research methods of these fields are qualitative research methods， case study， and experiment design. (2) research participants were mostly children and teenagers. (3) Research in Taiwan lagged behind those in other countries in terms of research periods， quantities， and diversity. (4) Research participants were mostly nonclinical case as well as loss and traumatic case. According to the findings， future research development in this field are discussed and offered.
