THERAPYAbstract
This study is an attempt to validate an earlier study at Slippery Rock State College which determined that seven of eight subjects improved emotionally by means of 26 hours of poetry therapy at the college clinic. In this study it was not possible to keep the control group intact since four of the ' seven asked for individual treatment during the period of the experiment-as was agreed upon designating them members of the control group.
