A Peer Assertiveness‐Training Program

Abstract
The demand for assertiveness‐training groups and the effective use of paraprofessionals in skills training were influential factors in the authors' decision to develop a peer assertiveness‐training program. This program extends the availability of assertiveness training to students through the use of paraprofessionals as group leaders. This article describes a format for developing a peer assertiveness‐training program and is based on the authors' experience conducting this program during the 1977–78 academic year at Pennsylvania State University.
