Assertion Training: Effectiveness in the Treatment of Depression.
Sanchez, Victor C.; And Others
Journal of Clinical Psychology, v36 n2 p526-29 Apr 1980
Assigned depressed outpatients (N=32) to either group assertion training or "traditional" group psychotherapy. Results showed that over a relatively short period of time, assertion training was more effective than traditional psychotherapy in increasing self-reported assertiveness and in alleviating depression.
