This paper describes an attempt to stimulate positive mental health in the classroom. It was carried out by a group of psychologists who experimented with mental health consultation ideas and techniques and developed a model of working with groups of teachers. This model focuses on discussion topics chosen by the teachers (such as envy). The psychologist provides relevant psychological knowledge. Teachers discuss the issues experientially, clarifying their feelings and often uncovering disruptive personal biases in their work. An attempt is made to understand the point of view of teacher and child, both developmentally and interpersonally. Practical implications for the classroom are discussed. In evaluating the project teachers expressed satisfaction with the groups and reported improvement in their ability to cope with the emotional problems of their students. The authors call this approach 'Psychotherapy of the Role'.
本文描述了一项在课堂上激发积极心理健康的尝试。它由一群心理学家开展，他们对心理健康咨询理念和技术进行了试验，并开发了一种与教师群体合作的模式。该模式聚焦于教师选择的讨论话题（如嫉妒）。心理学家提供相关的心理学知识。教师们通过体验式的方式讨论这些问题，澄清自己的感受，并常常揭示出他们工作中具有干扰性的个人偏见。人们试图从发展和人际角度理解教师和学生的观点。文中还讨论了该模式对课堂教学的实际影响。在对该项目进行评估时，教师们对这些小组表示满意，并报告称他们应对学生情感问题的能力有所提高。作者将这种方法称为“角色心理治疗”。
