title: [Talking of one's self or writing about one's self : effects of these processes on the concept of self in adolescents.].
abstract: Taking into account the processes involved in self-centered writing and the reasons put forward in specialised literature to justify the value of self-revelation in mental health, this research tries to verify and compare, in a school environment, the effectiveness of two programs geared towards self-revelation. They are: The Intensive Journal (Ira Progoff, 1977) and Innerchange (Ball & Palomares, 1977). Four groups of professional secondary level male students took part in this research for a semester. From this experience, it appears possible to initiate such programs in a school environment in order to help students develop certain personal abilities.
