Abstract
Background and problem of the study. Group psychotherapy, first
used as a treatment for the mentally-ill, has recently proved its value
in the training of professional groups, notably clinical psychologists,
nurses, and psychiatric social workers. The first attempt to use this
technique to train theological students and ministers, so far as we
know, is t he course, "Group Therapy," which is offered at the Boston
Psychopathic Hospital. This six-weeks course offers 27 hours of group
psychotherapy, supplemented by 27 eight-hour days in which the students
are volunteers in the hospital [TRUNCATED]
