Following publication of the original article [1], the authors report the following error in the third paragraph of the discussion section. Mandala coloring is not a primary modality used in art therapy, nor was it a primary modality used in the intervention of this study. The first sentence of this paragraph should therefore read “Our data suggests that introspective Mandala drawings, one type of art modality utilized for art therapy, is beneficial.”
