Recent Developments

• Arts, Health & Wellbeing Research

• Practice

• Policy

Professor Norma Daykin

Page 25: Norfolk Arts Forum Conference Slides 19 May 2016

Growing research evidence base

• Clinical outcomes in hospital settings

• Health and wellbeing for specific populations and health conditions:

mental health, older people, COPD,

dementia.

• RCTs, mixed methods and qualitative

research• Staricoff (2004); Staricoff & Clift (2011); Sarkoma et al. 2013;

• Cochrane reviews; Journals, e.g. Arts & Health

Professor Norma Daykin

Page 26: Norfolk Arts Forum Conference Slides 19 May 2016

Practice

• National Alliance/LAFH.

• International Conference, Bristol, June 2017.

• RSPH, PHE and ADPH Special Interest Groups.

• Arts and health/wellbeing – arts therapies -

commonalities.

Professor Norma Daykin

Page 27: Norfolk Arts Forum Conference Slides 19 May 2016

Policy

• What Works for Wellbeing - CSW Evidence Review

(Victor et al. in process).

• Cultural Commissioning & Social Prescribing.

• APPG.

• PHE Evaluation Framework (Daykin with Joss, 2015).

Professor Norma Daykin

Page 28: Norfolk Arts Forum Conference Slides 19 May 2016

Findings from Knowledge Exchange (Daykin et al. 2013)

• Consensus about the need for robust

evidence.

• Low consensus about how to evaluate

• Lack of agreed evaluation frameworks,

methods & tools.

• Artists feel marginalised in policy &

evaluation discourse.

Professor Norma Daykin

Page 29: Norfolk Arts Forum Conference Slides 19 May 2016

Creative and Credible

• Collaboration between Willis Newson

and UWE, Bristol.

• One year knowledge exchange project

funded by ESRC, completed August

2015.

• Evaluation resources for the arts and

health sector.

Professor Norma Daykin

Page 30: Norfolk Arts Forum Conference Slides 19 May 2016

Project methods

• Stakeholder Reference Group.

• Survey, workshops, interviews, focus groups and round table discussions.

• Development of website and

resources.

Professor Norma Daykin

Page 31: Norfolk Arts Forum Conference Slides 19 May 2016

The Evaluation Cycle

Professor Norma Daykin

Page 32: Norfolk Arts Forum Conference Slides 19 May 2016

Survey respondents

• 25 returns:

Project managers (12); researchers (10); independent evaluators (7);

arts practitioners (6); commissioners and funders (7); health care

practitioners (2).

• 52 evaluations across a range of art forms,

populations and settings.

Professor Norma Daykin

Page 33: Norfolk Arts Forum Conference Slides 19 May 2016

Survey findings

• Wide range of methodologies including controlled

studies (4) and cost effectiveness (4).

• Extensive anecdotal evaluation.

• 16/25 have never used creative methods despite

recognised strengths.

Professor Norma Daykin

Page 34: Norfolk Arts Forum Conference Slides 19 May 2016

Satisfaction with commissioning

"I am satisfied with the process of matching needs and expectations between project evaluation and

funders/commissioners"

Professor Norma Daykin

Page 35: Norfolk Arts Forum Conference Slides 19 May 2016

Survey findings: working with commissioners

• Managing expectations.

• Language and cultural differences.

• Methodological conventions and requirements.

• Hierarchy of evidence.

• Artistic views hold little traction.

• Importance of collaboration.

Professor Norma Daykin

Page 36: Norfolk Arts Forum Conference Slides 19 May 2016

Whose outcomes?

‘Is it commissioners’ outcomes, is it the artists’

outcomes, is it the participants’ outcomes? We may all

be going down different roads here,’(FG1).

Professor Norma Daykin

Page 37: Norfolk Arts Forum Conference Slides 19 May 2016

Qualitative themes: opportunities

… dementia is a bit of an open door generally because it’s seen that medical solutions are not gonna work… (Service

provider).

• if we didn’t continue to commission where would these people go?... (Commissioner).

Professor Norma Daykin

Page 38: Norfolk Arts Forum Conference Slides 19 May 2016

Qualitative themes: Scaling Up?

• Larger, replicable interventions and infrastructure development

versus

• Uniqueness and ‘voice’.

Professor Norma Daykin

Page 39: Norfolk Arts Forum Conference Slides 19 May 2016

Themes: evaluation challenges

• Structural and cultural barriers.

• Inflexible, obtrusive frameworks & tools.

• Competing priorities: outcomes & budgets.

• Arts providers feel disadvantaged – fragility.

• Low resourcing of evaluation.

• ‘Burden’ of evaluation.

• Evaluation versus research.

Professor Norma Daykin

Page 40: Norfolk Arts Forum Conference Slides 19 May 2016

Evaluation frameworks

‘He is using a magnifying glass to study animal

tracks, where in fact he is about to have his head

bitten off by a lion. Is he using the right tool for the

task and is he using it the right way and has he got

a sense of scale and is he aware of the risks?’ (FG1)

Professor Norma Daykin

Page 41: Norfolk Arts Forum Conference Slides 19 May 2016

Improving evaluation practice

• Standardisation?

… I know in other areas… they have … standard evaluation

frameworks for obesity, healthy eating, physical activity… it was quite useful (to have) just a checklist of what things you should collect (Commissioner).

Professor Norma Daykin

Page 42: Norfolk Arts Forum Conference Slides 19 May 2016

Themes: improving evaluation practice

• Methodological awareness

Yeah, so I think with qualitative stuff… I don’t think there’s a

thematic analysis going on for qualitative feedback, but there might be some cherry picking (Commissioner).

Professor Norma Daykin

Page 43: Norfolk Arts Forum Conference Slides 19 May 2016

Improving evaluation practice

• Coproduction

… that makes the evaluation stronger because then you get better buy in… if you design it on your own, you’re never gonna

satisfy everyone … those that are co-produced … are more … successful

because you’ve got buy in from the right people (Commissioner).

Professor Norma Daykin

Page 44: Norfolk Arts Forum Conference Slides 19 May 2016

Creative and Credible: Conclusions

• Arts – challenged to evidence their work; unsure how

to engage with current initiatives; unequal power relationships.

• Commissioners – pragmatic; support realistic and

proportionate assessment; information requirements.

Professor Norma Daykin

Page 45: Norfolk Arts Forum Conference Slides 19 May 2016

What Works Wellbeing CSW?

• Consultation with 52 CSW stakeholders,

August and December 2015.

• Explored definitions of wellbeing and the

populations, settings and interventions

most likely to produce wellbeing

outcomes.

• 40 (74.07%) completed a two stage

DELPHI.

Professor Norma Daykin

Page 46: Norfolk Arts Forum Conference Slides 19 May 2016

10 priority statements

1. We need a common definition of wellbeing on which to base evaluation and research.

2. Evidence is needed to secure and maintain funding for culture and

sport.

3. Evaluation should identify what doesn’t work as well as what works.

4. (Evidence) review should encompass evidence produced by a diverse

group of stakeholders.

5. (Evidence) should include rigorous qualitative evidence in culture and support.

Professor Norma Daykin

Page 47: Norfolk Arts Forum Conference Slides 19 May 2016

10 priority statements

6. Quality assessment – has evaluation been informed by the views of those who take part in culture and sport?

7. Key dimensions of wellbeing: confidence and self-esteem, coping and resilience, belonging and social identity.

8. Populations: general population: open access community-based culture and sport.

9. Settings: community-based culture, sport and leisure.

10. Interventions: Group based interventions led by a volunteer or peer.

Professor Norma Daykin

Page 48: Norfolk Arts Forum Conference Slides 19 May 2016

Nuanced views

• Service providers more likely to favour embedded

evaluation including anecdotal reports and testimonials.

• Commissioners and managers more likely to support

case studies and stories.

• Scholars more likely to support independent

evaluation.

Professor Norma Daykin

Page 49: Norfolk Arts Forum Conference Slides 19 May 2016

Review topic (1st of four)

• A systematic review of the wellbeing outcomes of

music and singing of adults (15+ years) and the processes by which wellbeing outcomes are

achieved.

• To include ‘grey literature’ – call for reports.

Professor Norma Daykin

Page 50: Norfolk Arts Forum Conference Slides 19 May 2016

PHE guidelines

• Standard Evaluation Framework.

• Reporting tool in two sections.

• 1 = project description, including activities, setting, requirements, quality

assurance and costs per participant.

• 2 = evaluation - diverse methodologies.

Professor Norma Daykin

Page 51: Norfolk Arts Forum Conference Slides 19 May 2016

Project reporting

• Can the project be reproduced based

on your description?

• Does your project work equally well in

different settings?

• Project management, quality assurance, ethics, consent and risk

management.

• Core staff competencies & training.

• Full costs per participant.

Professor Norma Daykin

Page 52: Norfolk Arts Forum Conference Slides 19 May 2016

Evaluation reporting

• Evaluation aims (not project aims).

• Evaluation rationale.

• Theory of change & logic modelling.

• Evaluation procedures.

• Knowledge & skills.

• Ethics, consent & governance.

Recognising the value of art for health and wellbeing

Importance of economic case for decision making

• Importance for CCGs and Local Authorities of demonstrating a return on investment for health (if they are to financially support art for health).

• Helping to allow arts in health to be judged on a level playing field vis a vis other potential interventions by assessing economic case

• Using economic techniques can be used to look at the short, mid and long term costs and benefits of effective art interventions.

• Can also be used to quantify benefits that go beyond health sector – important for encouraging cross sectoral investment

David McDaid

Page 56: Norfolk Arts Forum Conference Slides 19 May 2016

• Wide review of literature

• “case that subjective wellbeing influences health and longevity compelling”

• Between 4 and 10 years additional healthy life expectancy

David McDaid

Page 57: Norfolk Arts Forum Conference Slides 19 May 2016

Four key economic questions to inform decision making

• The costs of inaction: What are the economic consequences of not addressing health problems?

• The costs of action: What would it cost to intervene by promotion, prevention, treatment and recovery?

• The cost-effectiveness of action: What is the balance between cost of intervention and better outcomes, e.g. health status, improved quality of life, employment or educational performance etc?

• The levers for change: What economic and other incentives can encourage more use of those interventions that are thought to be cost-effective and less use of those interventions which are not?

David McDaid

Page 58: Norfolk Arts Forum Conference Slides 19 May 2016

Economic evaluation

The effectiveness question:

Does this intervention work?

The economic question:

Is it worth it?

David McDaid

Page 59: Norfolk Arts Forum Conference Slides 19 May 2016

Two Basic Needs: (A) Costs and Outcomes; (B) 2+ Alternatives

Outcomes (e.g. Quality of Life Years (QALYs) for intervention X

Costs for intervention X

Costs for intervention Z Outcomes (e.g

Quality of Life Years (QALYs) for intervention Z

David McDaid

Page 62: Norfolk Arts Forum Conference Slides 19 May 2016

Economic case for investment

• Silver Song Clubs’ 258 older people, 84% women, mean age 69, 5 clubs in

East Kent, almost all White British

• 14 weeks of professionally led singing programmes; comparators – usual

activities.

• At 6 month follow up significant improvement in SF-12 mental scores;

2.35 mean difference (p<0.05); No significant impact on service use costs

• Potentially cost effective – 60% chance of being cost effective if

£20,000 per QALY gained

Fujiwara, Lawton & Mourato 2015 – www.artscouncil.org.uk

David McDaid

Page 64: Norfolk Arts Forum Conference Slides 19 May 2016

Economic case for investment

• Library usage is associated with higher life satisfaction, higher happiness

and a higher sense of purpose in life (although usage was also associated

with higher levels of anxiety).

• Being a regular library user is associated with a 1.4% increase in the

likelihood of reporting good general health.

• Potential reductions just in GP visits estimated to be £27.5 million per

year

• There will also be other be other benefits to NHS & other sectors

David McDaid

Page 66: Norfolk Arts Forum Conference Slides 19 May 2016

Case for investment

• Analysis of survey data of more than 10,000 people. After controlling for

age, economic status; income; area deprivation, education qualification,

disability/or long standing illness and smoking

• Those who participated in a creative or cultural activity were 38% more

likely to report good health compared to those who did not participate

in in previous year.

• Those who read for pleasure in the previous 12 months were 33% more

likely to report good health than those who did not read for pleasure

Music Therapy for Depression

• Effectiveness data in model taken from Erkkila Finnish study of one to one music therapy for people with primary diagnosis of depression (B J Psych 2011)

• Effect size of 0.65 compared to usual care controls – significant reduction in depressive levels on Montgomery Asberg Depression Rating Scale – 45% experienced a reduction of more than 50% in depression scores over 3 months

• Delivered by professional music therapists; high level of fidelity to approach

• 20 bi-weekly sessions of music therapy in addition to usual care

• Digital mallets, digital midi percussion and a acoustic djembe drum

David McDaid

Page 71: Norfolk Arts Forum Conference Slides 19 May 2016

Economic case for investment

• Return on investment:

• From health system perspective every £1 invested generates costs avoided of £0.47

• From public purse perspective every £1 invested generates costs avoided of £1.28

• From a social perspective every £1 invested generates costs avoided of £2.70

• Cost effectiveness:

• From health system perspective: cost per QALY gained of £9,900; cost saving per QALY gained from other perspectives

David McDaid

Page 72: Norfolk Arts Forum Conference Slides 19 May 2016

To sum up• Demonstrating an economic return on investment can help make the case for arts interventions to health commissioners

• Demonstrating economic benefits of better health and wellbeing as well as other benefits to society

• Economic arguments have made an important impact in health policy in England (and elsewhere); research in the arts needs to consider this approach

• Important to collect resource & costing data as part of any evaluation

• Possible to model the potential economic benefits of the arts

More Feedback

‘Today was awesome. I want to be a

writer!’- Year 4 boy

‘The work they’ve been producing is some of the best we’ve

ever seen. I think that because they were able to visit the

museum it really gave them a tactile sense of what life was

like. I don’t think they’d have got that any other way.’

Flora

A few days after Flora’s marriageshe became very unnatural in her manner.Her husband has not since been heard of.

Through necrosis she is rotting from her roots.She has saved people in her night ramblings,was going to be married again.

I’m fixed to the earth by needles, fixedto the earth by Venlefaxine. There is skyand the damp give of the ground.

Flora has a mouthful of needles.She is making dressesin the blue shape of us.

In the Spring, we’ll standface the low sun and the breeze,promenade ourselves home.

There are 29 rural touring schemes across the

UK.

These important schemes:

• place access at the forefront of the work;

• they are driven by the desire to overcome social,

geographic, economic and psychological barriers that

have historically inhibited the enjoyment of the arts by

people in rural communities;

• they have a commitment to promoting excellent arts and

cultural experience that would not otherwise be available to

these communities.

“One lady, now deceased, when asked why she was such a

regular attender, said that she welcomed the opportunity

to meet friends, have some entertainment and enjoy

herself, all within a safe and secure environment. She

continued that she felt secure because: ‘If I have a funny

turn there is someone there who knows my name and

will make sure I’m looked after’.”
