Abstract

ABSTRACT This study aims to reduce the loneliness level of university students using group therapy. UCLA Loneliness Scale was applied to a sample of 42 university students. Ten students with the highest score were interviewed one-to-one and informed about the aims and stages of the group work. Six students who agreed to participate in therapy were subjected to a five-session study. At the end of the study period, UCLA Loneliness Scale was re-applied to the students. The outcomes of the group work revealed a downward trend in the loneliness scale scores of the participants. It was observed that the students participating in the group work had a reduced perception of loneliness.
