Question

consider this claim: drawing in adult coloring books for relaxation or self-care purposes should not be considered \art therapy.\ which piece of evidence better supports this claim? evidence a: when asked to provide feedback, one participant at a stress reduction workshop expressed that it diluted the meaning of the word therapy when a coloring book activity was labeled \art therapy\ in the presenters slides. evidence b: the website of the american art therapy association states that the term art therapy is often used inaccurately. it specifies that \coloring activities must be distinguished from art therapy services provided by a credentialed art therapist.\

Explanation:

Evidence B is a formal, authoritative statement from a professional association dedicated to art therapy, which directly differentiates adult coloring from legitimate art therapy. Evidence A is just one participant's subjective opinion, making it a weaker support for the claim.

Answer:

B. The website of the American Art Therapy Association states that the term art therapy is often used inaccurately. It specifies that "coloring activities must be distinguished from art therapy services provided by a credentialed art therapist."
