dc.description.abstract |
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. |
