Fifteen college students and three recent graduates, who came to theCenter for Applied Psychology in a public university, participated in the training. The programconsisted of a series of 20 weekly group-encounters over the academic year, and each session was twohours long; six intervention groups were conducted with an average of three participants in eachgroup. The IHS-Del-Prette was used as measurement instrument, and the data were treated through anon-parametric statistical test (Wilcoxon Test). The results indicated important acquisitions which ledto the effectiveness of the intervention procedure. However, the results must be analyzed consideringthe small sample size, the use of oral reports as the main data source and also the absence of a controlor follow-up group, which can be tested in future studies.
