This research investigated the effects of five 16-hour unstructured marathon groups on changing the attitudes toward counseling of male and female imprisoned, illicit drug users. The attitudes of the participants of the marathon groups were compared on posttests to the attitudes of the participants of five matched, randomly selected control groups. The members of the marathon groups rated counseling higher than the members of the control groups on an evaluative semantic differential scale. They also rated many of the specific evaluative and potency adjective pairs of the semantic differential for counseling differently than the control group members.
本研究调查了五个时长为16小时的非结构化马拉松小组对改变男性和女性被监禁的非法药物使用者对咨询态度的影响。将马拉松小组参与者在后测中的态度与五个匹配的、随机选择的对照组参与者的态度进行了比较。在评估性语义差异量表上，马拉松小组的成员对咨询的评价高于对照组的成员。他们对咨询的语义差异中许多特定的评价性和效价形容词对的评分也与对照组成员不同。
