PsychodramaAbstract
With the major focus on psychodrama in the eight annual meetings selected for analysis, a wide variety of kindred modalities also served to enhance the program offerings. More training was offered in the fundamentals of psychodrama than in sociometry or in specific skills and their applications. The authors present several recommendations for making the annual meetings more valuable to members.
