Abstract

Abstract The Therapeutic Learning Program (TLP) is a structured, model-based treatment designed to help clients counter self-doubts that interfere with personafdevelopment. Specific information is collected and a therapist helps the client interpret it, select goals, and overcome emotional barriers to action. Undergraduate volunteers (N = 66) seeking counseling to solve academic problems were randomly assigned to a condition in which they entered TLP information on a computer (TLP1), a condition in which they entered the TLP information on a paper check list (TLP2), or participated in a personally chosen option (PCO) control. The post-test data showed equal satisfaction and setf-concept gain for all three treatments. Sessions with the computer were longer, involved the clients in more individual effort, and were probably more thorough.
