%X This study compared two social skills training programmes for shy-isolated adolescents. The investigation employed a test-retest quasi experimental design with a no contact contrast group. One programme used a traditional discussion-activities approach, the other used psychodramatic role-plays. There were significant changes in social behaviours following both interventions. There was a significant positive change in self-concept following the role-play intervention. These self-concept changes were significantly correlated with behavioural changes. <br><br>RESULTS are discussed.<p />
