Selected Alternative Training Techniques in HRD. [and] Invited Reaction. [and] Final Word: A Rejoinder.

Von Bergen, C. W.; Soper, Barlow; Rosenthal, Gary T.; Wilkinson, Lamar V.; Watkins, Karen E.

Human Resource Development Quarterly, v8 n4 p281-303 Win 1997

Von Bergen, Soper, Rosenthal, and Wilkinson examine four alternative training methods (subliminal self-help, meditation, mental imagery/practice, and neurolinguistic programming), concluding that only mental practice is supported by scientific evidence. Watkins takes issue with their dismissal of qualitative evidence. Their rejoinder asserts the validity of their approach. (SK)
