Self Incorporated is a 15-program television/film series designed to stimulate classroom discussion of critical issues and problems of early adolescence. Formative evaluation of Self Incorporated was conducted in two phases: pre-production evaluation and extensive field tests of eight of the tentatively completed programs. Separate evaluations for these eight programs were designed to provide information to production personnel for decisions regarding each program. Results of the field tests showed that the programs were effective with student audiences, and teachers indicated a desire to use more programs. That some of the more sensitive programs caused teacher discomfort suggested the need for special preparation of teachers before extensive use of the series. (CH)
