Abstract

In a study of the effects of the teaching of the ‘Grammar of Psychotherapy’ Course, 26 subjects were matched with 27 controls. The students were found to have significantly better interviews than the controls as rated by their patients and by independent blind assessment of their audiotapes six months later. There are some trends which were of interest, although not statistically significant.
