Abstracts

Studied 18 college students to examine the effects of a Gestalt marathon workshop on Ss' scores on the Eysenck Personality Inventory (EPI). It was hypothesized that Ss would show significant increases in extraversion and decreases in neuroticism, whereas the 18 nontreatment controls would not. Ss were administered the EPI before and after the workshop. Results reveal a significant change ( p < .01) on neuroticism and extraversion-introversion.
