Abstract
Psychotherapeutic content themes in two distinct group psychotherapies, cognitive treatment following Beck's theory and behavioral treatment following Lewinsohn's model, conducted with Puerto Rican women were empirically observed. The findings revealed that there were no significant differences in the frequencies of content themes discussed in either group treatment modality. For both group treatment modalities, all content themes were discussed in the context of Puerto Rican values and value conflicts. Implications for psychotherapy with this group are discussed.Keywords
