Abstract

This research analyzes the impact of a program based on the Adventure Based Counseling model (Schoell, Proutty and Radcliffe, 1989). A quasi-experimental multi-group design and pre/post measures with a sample of 48 adults was used, which they were divided into five groups by incidental sampling. Four groups have received the program based on experiential education by using outdoor games and activities and a control group. The measurement instrument used was the adaptation of the Team Development Inventory (TDI, Jones, 1982). This questionnaire was validated and translated to Spanish. The results showed that the training increases the participant’s skills and competence in all the following patterns: participation, cooperation, flexibility, emotional climate, risk taking, commitment, work facilitation and openness.
