Abstract
An intervention designed to foster forgiveness was implemented with postabortion men.
Participants were randomly assigned to either the treatment or the control (wait list)
condition, which received treatment after a 12-week waiting period. Following treatment,
the participants demonstrated a significant gain in forgiveness and significant reductions
in anxiety, anger, and grief as compared with controls. Similar significant findings
were evident among control participants after they participated in the treatment.
Maintenance of psychological benefits among the 1st set of participants was demonstrated
at a 3-month follow-up.
