Toward Better School Adaptability: An Early Adolescent Group Therapy Experiment
Abstract
The authors describe an experimental study in which young adolescents with behavior problems in school were given group therapy during school hours. Compared with a control group of problem students who received no therapy, the students who participated in group therapy showed significantly improved behavior on two meas measurements. The authors conclude that in-school group therapy is an effective means of increasing the adaptability of young adolescents with behavior problems to the academic and interpersonal milieu of school.
