Analysis of psychological well-being in inclusive choral practice

Abstract

Choral practice provides considerable benefits in the psychological, affective and social spheres, which favor inclusion and social cohesion. A study carried out with the participants of an inclusive choir. The objective is to carry out a descriptive analysis of the current situation of this choir to adapt and design actions that contribute to the improvement of psychological well-being. The sample is made up of 73 participants. The method used is ex post facto quantitative research, retrospective and comparative. The results reveal that there are differences in psychological well-being with respect to gender diversity and in those individuals who perceive psychological distress. People with functional diversity are not those who seem to have lower psychological well-being than those without functional diversity, although their levels of psychological well-being are lower. This aspect invites us to conclude that the activities proposed in the choir could enhance higher levels of psychological well-being.
