the classic example used in role playing
therapeutic literature is the example of learning to

people learn similar complex activities best A
example is swimming
what are the best ways of learning
1
to swim one could
conceivably attempt to teach a person
how to swim by cognitive means letting one read books view
films watch others swim listen to lectures etc until the
student knows everything about swimming so that he could
literally write a book on the topic and become an authority
or 2 one could assume that anyone can swim since it is a
relatively simple process but what is needed is to remove a
persons fears and so we encourage the patient let him
express his fears and get him to the point where he is not
3
we can let the person go in the
or
water
afraid of the
water and practice during which time he simultaneously learns
the facts about swimming overcomes his anxieties and gets
experience in proper motions
notions
suppose we obtained three comparable samples of peoples
people
and gave each group the same number of hours in one of these
three modes of instruction and then threw them all into the
water to see how many could make it back to shore what

which prevented them from listening to the description

of the speakers father the director suggested on the other
hand that perhaps the group was uncomfortable because the speaker
had drained from his words all emotion and feeling and that he
was not really talking to them
the speaker then volunteered that
he disliked his father and he didnt want to speak of him altogether the group gradually acknowledged that they did feel the

and
the question might be raised as to the need for this kind

cut the natural tendency for the group is to talk
this part of the
process constitutes the educational carba

lyst that allows each
calta

individual in the group to formulate an acceptable vocabulary for expression of the feelings they have experienced
this is essential to
the role playing process
the instructor should be aware of
some
general
rule of
orientations that tend to lead to constructive results
the
thumb
first
of
these has been touched upon already the conversation should deal with
the present and the future rather than the past
setting role playing should
be
restricted
in the
institute
from becoming a deeply
therapeutic group session because the span of control of the group is
not sufficient to handle the deep emotions that overflow
in the
opinion of this author only those emotions which can be handled
co-
nstructively by the group should be encouraged in the classroom
by
orienting the discussion to the present the group concentrates
on what
has happened in the class
in the example of the jealous wife explained above
might ask
the group
did the husband give the wife the reassurance she needed
and thus achieve the
objective of handling jealousy effectively
group then discusses and evaluates how they
felt
the
about the interaction
88

of the discussion is to give them better ways of interacting

A
from evaluating on

the wife
did you feel about the way your husband reacted

asked
the observers and
how
did you feel about your
participants
own
may be
or the
technique
can work as a group to discover a more
adequate or satisfying technique to be used in the future to handle
such feelings
then
89
A
third rule of the
thumb
in the evaluation discussion is to talk
about the over
all adequacy of the technique
overall
just
the husband could have
walked out on his wife and son in the above
role
this
would
hardly have constituted an adequate solution to the problem however
as
it
leaves both the wife and the son without the personal reassurance
that their father is concerned for
this
them
would tend
to feed the
already festering feelings of frustration and doubts in the wife and
bury
even though she were able to
placing restrictions
on
teaching at the smiths
have
felt satisfied for
while

since psychodrama is quick and cheap it is of greater social
value than psychoanalysis
in conducting psychodrama one is

to participants 8 participants are to discuss and formulate
an illustrative experia conceptual theory explaining the data
ment using instrumented role playing with twenty four psychiatric patients is provided rothaus concludes that the IRP technique overcomes a great deal of the resistance one often finds
to role playing for instance IRP avoids singling out individuals for specific roles which may make them uncomfortable and
calls for large numbers of subjects to play identical roles simultaneously also with IRP the subject plays several roles
rather than just one specific role thus reducing the threat of
having to make a sweeping change in his behavior pattern and
allowing him to choose what changes in his behavior style seem
most appropriate
finally IRP can make the patient feel as
though he is a scientist or learner when role playing rather
than a sick person demonstrating his ability to change sick
behavior

dramatic insights and techniques have a broad
application in the church role reversal can be used when a
person has an unrealistic view of the clergy role playing
can be used in helping individuals understand themselves better
become more effective in their relations with others and help
them understand at a deeper level the social issues of our
time
the church is a place where people live together hence
psychodrama is valuable in this setting

2
testimony
the category which was second in number of written objectives was
testimony the latter day saints concept of a testimony is very important
to members of the church therefore it plays a significant role in any
A
tp
teaching
or
testimony of
religious

institutions of the church
the gospel or any facet thereof is considered to be a sure knowledge
received by revelation from the holy ghost it is certainty of belief
doubt is dismissed
faith becomes the ruling power in light of this
concept it is easily Mider
stood why testimony was preceded only by
understood
ulder
religious education teaching and learning is a prerequisite to receiving
a testimony of the divinity of some part or the total of the gospel of
jesus christ examples of objectives written in this area are as follows

and
the
calling
is

to assist students in understanding the role of the living prophet
3
personal living
the category with the third highest number of objectives is in the
area of assisting students to develop guidelines for personal living
to help the student build a framework of reference and conviction
which will keep him steady in times of intellectual spiritual and
social need and give him the necessary foundation upon which hee can
build a full life both here and hereafter

the community and nation and to accept responsibilities for its
betterment

the latter day saints concept of life has its center in the family
therefore great emphasis is given to proper preparation for marriage
and family life
the latter day saints institutes of religion have become
in part social centers in which latter day saints college youth associate
in light of this faculty members have indicated that one of the institutes
major objectives is to provide proper training association and atmosphere
great emphasis is also placed
which contribute to a successful marriage
upon marriage within a latter day saints temple for it is here that marriage
solemnizer by one having authority for time and for all eternity
is solemnized
some representative examples of the faculty written objectives in this
category are as follows

to provide social experiences which will assist students in gaining
confidence in themselves and which will result in the development
of character
certainly an important objective is the bringing together of latter
day saints youth to associate with one another
this social objective
is very important especially in communities which are essentially
non mormon
to provide a social outlet where college students can meet other
people of their age and interests and where social functions and
relationships can be maintained on a high moral level
5
church service
the church of jesus christ of latter day saints is considered a lay
none of the local leaders are paid for their services
church
rather
they are expected to donate time talents and money inasmuch as those
engaged in church service are not trained specifically for that work
certain of the programs have been given or have assumed the responsibility
to inspire and train the members for effective church service the faculty
members of the institutes of religion feel that one of their objectives
is to assist in training people for church service the following are
examples
to imbue them with christs concept that real joy comes from
serving others and that he that loses his life shall find it
to develop within each latter day saints college student
desire and love for service to the master and his church
to better train and prepare students for
work
missionary
