Diversional group therapy: a study of effectiveness.
This research uses an immediate response questionnaire (IRQ) to measure the general diversional effectiveness of six new recreational and diversional groups in a 38-bedded acute psychiatric unit. The groups were first implemented in September 1996. The results support the implementation and continued use of the new groups and the methods used in facilitating them.
