Muench's tests before and after nondirective therapy: a control group for his subjects.

Abstract

This experiment provided a control group of subjects to match Muench's subjects (see 22: 320). Test-retest performance on the Bell Adjustment Inventory and the Rorschach was compared for these subjects who did not receive therapy. Muench's therapy group showed significant changes on both the Bell and Rorschach, this control (no-therapy) group showed significant changes, favorable, only on the Bell. It is concluded that significant changes in personality structure accompany the experience of nondirective therapy and are not associated with the passage of time.
