THIS INTERIM REPORT PRESENTS DATA COLLECTED IN A STUDY OF THE INTERPERSONAL ATTITUDES OF ADOLESCENTS. TWELVE GROUPS OF HIGH SCHOOL JUNIORS FROM THREE DIFFERENT SCHOOLS MET IN COUNSELING SESSIONS. THE PRINCIPAL INDEPENDENT VARIABLES IN THE GROUPS WERE CONGENIALITY (STUDENTS CHOSE TO MEET WITH EACH OTHER) AND THE STRUCTURE LEVEL IMPOSED BY THE COUNSELOR. VARIOUS INSTRUMENTS WERE USED TO MEASURE BOTH THE PERSONAL AND THE INTERPERSONAL EFFECTS OF THE COUNSELING THROUGH PRE- AND POST-TREATMENT TESTING. RESULTS OF THE DATA ANALYSIS SHOWED CONFLICTS AND BORDERLINE SIGNIFICANCES WHICH SUGGESTED A NEED FOR FURTHER RESEARCH AND ANALYSIS. SOME CHANGES IN THE GROUPS DUE TO COUNSELING WERE APPARENT, BUT NONE COULD BE INTERPRETED AS DEMONSTRATING A CLEAR RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN VARIABLES OR STRONG SUPPORT FOR THE ORIGINAL HYPOTHESES. AT THIS TIME, DATA ANALYSIS IS INCOMPLETE AND A NUMBER OF PERIPHERAL INVESTIGATIONS BASED ON THE ORIGINAL DESIGN ARE CONTINUING. (NS)
