The Influence of Disney Musical Practice Course on the Mental Health of Chinese Left-Behind Children from the Perspective of Art Communication.
Wei Cao
PMID 35844242WHAT IT FOUND
This paper is retracted.
It reported that a musical practice course reduced loneliness and bad behaviour in left-behind children, but those findings cannot be relied upon.
What this paper is
This is a retracted publication. It describes a survey of left-behind children in China and claims that a four-month musical practice intervention improved their mental health and behaviour. Because the paper has been retracted, its findings are not considered valid evidence, and there is nothing here to change your practice on.
The easy way to misread this
Do not use this paper to support the idea that Disney musical practice improves mental health in left-behind children. The publication is retracted, meaning its conclusions have been withdrawn and are not trustworthy.
