| Abstract:
|
S .R. Slavson was a prominent psychologist and leading figure in the development and
study of group psychotherapy. These papers document the development of Slavson's career
and offer a look into the nascent stages of group psychotherapy, particularly in the
Group Therapy Department of the Jewish Board of Guardians, but also in various other
social service agencies. The collection also contains considerable material relating
to the founding of the American Group Psychotherapy Association, and personal materials
which deal with Slavson's early interest in creative writing, socialism and labor
activism.
