Effectiveness of Booster Sessions in the Maintenance and Enhancement of Treatment Gains Following Assertion Training.

Baggs, Kate; Spence, Susan H.

Journal of Consulting and Clinical Psychology, v58 n6 p845-54 Dec 1990

Randomly assigned 46 unassertive adults to assertion training (AT) or waiting-list control conditions. AT subjects showed significantly greater improvement from pre- to posttreatment on assertiveness measures. AT subjects (n=27) were then randomly assigned to one of three booster conditions. Found minimal difference among booster conditions at three-month followup, advantage for monthly assertion training condition at six months. (Author/NB)
