Froni the application of the Kruskal-WaIlis test, it was observed that to evaluate the postest mean score obtained by the subjects that underwent Stages I.II and III (Group A), Stage IV (Group B) and Stage V (Group C), the differences were significant for the following factors: Low self-steem (9.58), low rate of frustration acceptance (11.25), assertive skills deficiency (89,9) and group's pressure (19.44).
