Two problems of family living showing how insight is gained into human relations problems by demonstrating and analysing the effects of different kinds of behaviour. A community problem demonstrating the use of the commentator soliloquy and interview in role playing. A supervisory training group making use, through role playing, of an expert who communicates some of his supervisory skills to the trainees by acting them out rather than by verbal explanation.
