Abstract
This report describes the content and evaluation of a program of eight self-administered exercises for personal and interpersonal development, called PROCESS. The program was designed as an educational experience for students and others interested in gaining a better understanding of themselves and the way in which they relate to others. It is based on the laboratoty method of learning and involves a series of learning activities within a small, selfdirected group setting. The program materials obviate the necessity for a professionally trained leader. The program was evaluated in a field experiment using a holdout control procedure. In general, the results indicated that participants in the program improved their concept of themselves, were more able to see themselves as their peers did, and reacted favorably to the total experience.Keywords
