    A controlled comparison of applied and Progressive Relaxation training
    (Te Herenga Waka—Victoria University of Wellington, 1989) Milne, Maureen Ann
    36 student volunteers, selected on the basis of high scores on Spielberger's STAI were assigned to three groups: a group receiving Applied Relaxation training; a group receiving Progressive Relaxation training and a waiting list control group. Self assessment and physiological measures were taken at three points, pre-relaxation training (Week 0), post-relaxation training (Week 8) and three month follow-up (Week 23). The results showed that both treatment groups had significantly lower scores than the control on self-report measures post treatment. No significant differences were observed for the physiological measure at either post-relaxation training or follow-up. The implications of these findings are discussed.
