| Abstract: | Author briefly addresses the statement by Eugene S. Mills (American Psychologist, 1955, 10, 74-78), (see record 1956-00173-001), suggesting that material in mental hygiene and abnormal psychology courses can be made more meaningful to the student by giving him contact with existing community facilities. Donald R. Brown, in the same issue (pp. 85-86), (see record 2005-07724-003), described a technique in which the student interprets his own personality test performances without knowing until afterwards that he had been analyzing his own protocol. He describes a technique which makes similar use of the student as his own subject, but which leaves room for the operation of defense mechanisms that had been used successfully at his university.
