The sample consisted of 24 students, 04 males and 20 females, aged 18 and 29 years old, from the psychology course at the Universidade Federal Rural do Rio de Janeiro. Participants were divided into two groups of 12 people each, called group A and group B. Group A attended 8 group psychotherapy sessions. Group B served as control group. Both groups answered the Academic Experiences Questionnaire reduced - QVAr, on two occasions, one at the beginning and another at end of the school year.
