Reporting Guidelines for Music-Based Interventions: Advancing Music for Health Research through Quality Reporting
Dr. Deanna Hanson-Abromeit, co-author of a recent review of MBI reporting quality in dementia studies, will moderate a conversation with Drs. Sheri Robb and Emmeline Edwards about the importance of reporting quality to advancing music intervention research.
Detailed intervention reporting is essential to interpretation, replication, and translation of music-based interventions (MBIs). The 2011 Reporting Guidelines for Music-Based Interventions were developed to improve transparency and reporting quality of published research; however, problems with reporting quality persist. This represents a significant barrier to advances in MBI scientific research and translation of findings to practice.
We recommend that authors, journal editors, and reviewers use the RG-MBI guidelines, in conjunction with methods-based guidelines (e.g., CONSORT) to accelerate and improve the scientific rigor of MBI research.
Please join us for a webinar discussing the newly validated Reporting Guidelines for Music-Based Interventions.
