The effect of a rational emotive school mental health program on irrational ideation, neuroticism, and trait anxiety was examined. Ninety-six fourth grade children of high or lower IQ served as subjects. They were given twelve group sessions of rational emotive mental health education (REE) in one of the following conditions: REE lectures, REE lectures plus behavior rehearsal, REE lectures plus rehearsal and “A-B-C” homework sheets, no contact control. The results indicated clear support for the efficacy of rational emotive education, especially with the added behavioral components. There was no indication that intelligence, within the range studied, significantly affects a child's ability to profit from the program. Implications and suggestions for further research are given.
