Summary: | This study examined the effects of a forgiveness education intervention on the psychological wellbeing of clergy and their ability to apply interpersonal forgiveness skills in their personal lives and in professional conflict situations depicted in hypothetical interpersonal conflict vignettes. A sample of 32 clergy from eleven different denominations was randomly assigned to either an experimental or control group. Significant results were found between the groups in regards to the participants' willingness to forgive and the use of forgiveness strategies for resolving the interpersonal conflict situations. |
