title: A short-term peer model for treating shyness in college students: a note on an exploratory study.
abstract: Two groups of 3 shy college students and 4 in a control group, were not different at pretest but one group given treatment involving several activities with feedback showed a decrement in shyness. Larger groups and further use of peer counselors should be included in further work.
