Abstract

An experimental study was conducted to assess the effectiveness of music therapy on the level of depression among elderly people in selected old age homes, in Gandhinagar district, Gujarat. The study aimed to assess the level of depression before and after music therapy among elderly people in selected old age homes and to evaluate the effectiveness of music therapy on the level of depression among elderly people in selected old age homes, in Gandhinagar district (Gujarat). Data was collected from thirty (30) samples that were selected purposively using the Geriatric Depression Scale of elderly people. One group pre-test and post-test design was adopted. The comparison between Pre-test and Post-test depression scores obtained by the Geriatric Depression Scale of elderly people. The mean pre-test score was (7.5±1.73) higher than and the mean post-test score (5.5±1.93) with a mean difference of 2, which was reflected by the calculated “t” value 9.06 [2.04, df (28), p<0.05]. This indicates that the difference obtained in the mean pre-test and post-test depression scores was a real difference. It was statistically proven and it revealed that administration of music therapy on elderly depressive peoples significantly decreases the depression.
