The artists involved included musicians, painters, dancers and actors. They were placed with commercial businesses in order to provoke employees to \u2018think in new and creative ways\u2019. The paper describes the many positive benefits of the scheme while noting that it required employees and managers to be fully invested to reap the full rewards on offer.', 'ceDoc

Since its start in 1985, the focus of the Cultural Capital initiative has changed from established cultural cities to smaller, de-industrialising cities in Europe. Along with it, its aims have changed from showcasing existing culture to attracting tourism and investments and thereby creating new economic growth.',

u'The researchers randomly assigned 144 six year old Canadian children to one of four groups: one received music tuition for the keyboard, another got voice coaching using the Kodaly method, and (by way of contrast) two control groups: one that got drama lessons and a final group that received no tuition at all. They found that after the music lessons (whether voice or keyboard) children increased their IQ when compared with those in the drama and control groups. They concede that \u2018the effect was relatively small\u2019. They also found that children in the drama group improved their aptitude for social behavior in a way that was not detectible in the music or control group.'

u'This paper sets out the results of a major research project examining the impact of the Learning Through the Arts (LTTA) programme in Canada. The LTTA is a model of arts education where professional artists develop a multi-year curriculum of activity that the artists then delivers directly to a group of students. The research took data from students aged 9-12 who had completed the programme and compared that with students from a series of \u2018control schools\u2019. They found that after three years in the programme students scored significantly higher than other students for maths.', 'ceDocType':

u'Over a period of 21 months, 43 participants aged 60-92 visited three contemporary art galleries in the northeast of England. They listened to a talk before taking part in facilitated discussions in which personal responses to the artworks were encouraged. The study responds to the idea that developing effective lifelong learning opportunities for post-retirement people can have positive implications for the cultural, health and voluntary sectors. However, engagement in the arts decreases significantly in people over the age of 64.\xa0 Gender, disability, ethnic background and socio-economic group can impact upon participation, and education will often play a determining role in the level and frequency of engagement.

u'This paper describes a study that showed how group singing affected the heart rate of 15 healthy 18 year olds in Sweden. They all spent five minutes humming, five minutes singing a well-known hymn, then five minutes singing a mantra. Each of the five-minute sessions was separated by a one-minute break. This experiment was complemented by a subsequent case study that sought to examine in greater detail the relationship between singing and various physiological processes: especially breathing and heart rate. Overall the research found that singing can have \u2018a biologically soothing effect, and [is] beneficial for cardiovascular function\u2019.', 'ceDocType'

u'The research compared the levels of immunoglobulin A (S-IgA), cortisol and emotional states of people after they had participated in a choir practice with when they had simply listened to choral music. The research found that (compared to listening) those engaged in group singing increased their positive mood and levels of S-IgA. Since depletion of S-IgA is associated with tiring and stressful states, and S-IgA is crucial \u2018as the body\u2019s first line of defence against bacterial and viral infections of the upper respiratory pathway\u2019 this means that if music enhances S-IgA levels then it could be an important means of relieving stress and improving health.', 'ceDocType':

u'This study reports two experiments designed to measure changes in readers\u2019 empathic skills over one week by getting participants to read either fiction or non-fiction writing. In the fiction groups, students were randomly allocated to read excerpts from work by either Arthur Conan Doyle or Jos\xe9 Saramago. The two non-fiction groups were given newspaper articles to read. Immediately after reading the texts, subjects were assessed for emotional transportation. Empathy was measured directly before and after the experiment as well as one week later.\xa0 Personal change was more likely to occur when becoming emotionally involved in the fictional story, and non-fiction readers were not similarly affected.', 'ceDocType':

u'Do location factors such as affordable rent, neighbourhood aesthetics, and demographic diversity always predict the formation of artistic clusters in the United States? This paper argues not, and that previous research is limited by its focus on prominent metro areas with pre-established cultural industries, places like New York or Los Angeles. The researchers analysed census data at a highly detailed geographic level to search for patterns across a wide array of US cities of varying sizes.

To test this the authors looked at a broadcast of the National Theatre\u2019s production of Phedre (which was broadcast live in cinemas). They found that people who lived near a cinema showing Phedre were actually more likely to book for a live performance of the play during its run at the National Theatre, and this likelihood increased depending on how near to the National Theatre people lived.', 'ceDocType': 'PeerReviewedResearch', 'cesource': 'http://www.culturecase.org', 'Publication date': '2014'}

u'This paper looked at the way in which museums have adopted new forms of performance management, partially in response to the changing beliefs of policymakers and funders. The core of the research is based on a series of 44 semi-structured interviews with staff from a diverse set of nine museums and policymaking and professional organisations. The aim of the \u2018new managerialism\u2019 (as it is termed) is to create museums that are \u2018more accountable, more efficient, more entrepreneurial and more responsive to customer needs\u2019. Some museums have resisted the new managerialism and found that such an approach does not align with their artistic and creative sensibilities. Others have appropriated the approach to fit their missions and business models, but with some unintended consequences.', 'ceDoc

They found that larger museums were more likely to innovate in technology and organisational practices. Increased levels of public funding led to lower levels of technological and organisational innovation. They concluded that public funding probably does not incentivise innovation, though increased proportions of public funding led to greater social performance. They found that size does not directly affect economic, market or social performance. Finally, all forms of innovation identified in the survey positively affect museum\u2019s economic, market and social performance.', 'ce
