abstract="The techniques employed in teaching diving and especially diving safety, were studied. Since it was felt that most accidents are not merely fortuitous but also derive from unconscious urges towards risk-taking, an attempt was made to understand the psychodynamics of the question. The study also investigated the effectiveness of the teaching method as a means not only of transmitting intrinsically useful skills and knowledge, but also as a psychotherapeutic technique aiding the diver to control any self-destructive aggressive urges.<p /><p>Language: it</p>",
