芸術と健康に関する研究の進展にもかかわらず，アートプログラムがウェルビーイングやケアに貢献するプロセスは十分に解明されていない。本研究は，介護施設で行われる即興演劇ワークショップが認知症の人たちとケアスタッフに与える効果の因果プロセスを，参加型評価とゴールフリー評価を併用して明らかにすることを目的としている。本論では，まず芸術における因果関係を扱う際の課題とアプローチについて概説し，次に方法論とワークショップのコンテクストについて述べる。調査結果は，芸術がもたらす効果を考える上で重要な検討課題，すなわち負の影響，芸術の独自性，芸術の質，長期的成果という観点から考察される。その結果，ミクロとマクロの2つのレベルの因果プロセスが合わさることではじめて，意味のある変化が生まれることが示された。このことは，負の影響（失敗）から学び，試行錯誤を通じて芸術的要素を他の関連要素と統合し，実施中に共有の目標を再定義することの重要性を示唆している。こうした取り組みを継続することで，個人の行動変容にとどまらない，コミュニティの成⻑へとつながる長期的成果をもたらすことができると考えられる。

Since the social turn in applied linguistics, there has been growing interest in the role of emotion in language practices. This role is especially relevant to self-access language learning in terms of how it influences learner autonomy and motivation. With its focus on autonomy and sociality, self-access learning offers unique affordances for facilitating learner and advisor awareness of emotion in language learning. To this end, this study used an arts-based method, language mapping, for learners to express their language practices in multimodal ways. Language mapping integrates body mapping and language portraits methods to catalyze individual and group reflection anchored by embodied, emotional experiences. The researchers collaborated with a Japanese university self-access language learning center to engage seven volunteer participants in a series of two workshops. Data were gathered through participants' language maps, narratives shared in workshops, and questionnaire responses. Findings highlight the potential of language mapping in exploring learners' affective connections to their named languages. While mother tongues were generally portrayed as comforting, vivid, default, and unconscious, relationships to learned languages were represented through more diverse visual and verbal metaphors. Key pedagogical considerations include the impact of exemplars and group processes.
