Description / Abstract
Empirical research supports the effectiveness of equine-assisted services (EAS) and as a treatment for veterans with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). However, the number of studies examining these modalities are sparse. The purpose of this study was to address the need for research as there was a lack of empirical evidence using EAS as a treatment for veterans with symptoms related to PTSD. The research was composed of a single design study. The participants (veterans) were assigned a group in the AM or PM, depending on their availability. They participated for 1 hour a week for eight weeks in an EAS setting. Participants completed four assessments: pre-treatment, mid-treatment, post-treatment, and a two-month follow-up. The assessments consisted of the PTSD Checklist for DSM-5 (PCL-5), Quantitative EEG (qEEG) brain mapping, and weekly pre/post-lesson surveys. The analysis of this data helped determine that EAS is an effective treatment for veterans with PTSD, and the testing instruments used were efficient.
