- Description: The purpose of this study is to ascertain whether the clients who make use of the services of the Psychology Clinic at Rhodes University perceive the masters students being trained at the Clinic as providing adequate psychotherapy. Using a sample of 18 clients, who underwent psychotherapy at the Rhodes Psychology Clinic during 1990, a follow-up study was conducted to ascertain the perceived success of that psychotherapy. Those variables most pertinent to the outcome of psychotherapy are examined. The study uses both qualitative and quantitative methodology and shows that, overall, 89% of the clients who participated in this study perceived the psychotherapy at the Rhodes Psychology Clinic to be satisfactory. The study also highlights those factors which were perceived to be negative in the psychotherapeutic equation and it is hoped that the findings can be beneficial in planning more efficient services for the Clinic in the future. , Thesis (MA) -- Faculty of Humanities, Psychology, 1993

- Description: This research project was developed from the idea that children's drawings reflect both their internal emotional lives and their external lived worlds. The subjects of the project were sexually abused children referred to Fort England Hospital during the first half of 1992. The Kinetic-Tree-House-Person projective drawing test was used as an instrument of assessment in conjunction with the Maudsley Child Psychiatric interview technique. Indications of the effects of sexual abuse were sought in drawing tests administered before and after interventions of ten sessions of group play therapy. Drawing tests were also administered to a control group of children. The research project explored the effectiveness of group play therapy interventions through comparison of pre intervention and post intervention drawings. The rationale for this project was the high incidence of rape and sexual abuse of prepubescent black young women in the Eastern Cape particularly, and in South Africa generally. There is need for both assessments of screening instruments and validation of therapeutic interventions if this problem is to be addressed adequately. , Thesis (MA) -- Faculty of Humanities, Psychology, 1993
