In this study the author examines the effects ofsmall‐group therapy on school adjustment. It included 73 elementary students assessed by school faculty as poorly adjusted and in need of counseling. A pre‐post‐test comparison group design was used. Based on a 10‐item teacher evaluation, results indicated significant progress for the experimental students in their interpersonal relationships, behavior, and some achievement scores.
