writing requirements

[thana ag]

Dear Adam,
I love your suggestion!i

I wonder why did Zerka change the requirement  that thesis be good enough to be published in the journal,(or perhaps it was a provilege?) or is  possible that the  subsequent  theseses were not good enough to be published?!

Regarding  Edward Schreiber 's comments today: As noted, Zerka continues to require a thesis for certification even now although I'm not sure if  she is still certifying people. Ed   
 
    Adam: Wow! This means that perhaps there are some theses that could be converted with a little editing into publishable articles. Is there any way we can encourage folks to do that? 
      There are other journals such as the Journal of Creativity in Mental Health,   or the British Journal of Psychodrama & Sociodrama, or the Arts in Psychotherapy, etc., or perhaps post on a website. The point is to seek to strengthen our field via the professional literature base.  Should we ask Zerka or some of the folks attending her workshops or what--- what do you suggest?  
 
    Warmly, Adam

Sadly ,I can't recall articles in Journal that specified the article was a thesis towards certification in the eighties. I maybe wrong.  anath responding to Adam's previous : As far as I know, at present the Board has no requirements for any written work. This might make for an interesing socio-axiodrama at the conference, or at least a conversation hour. As I said below, the loss of our journal is due more to the dearth of submissions than to the low membership. 
    Anath mentioned that Zerka used to ask for a thesis for certification. If this is so, it would be useful to dig those up and perhaps polish them up, update them, and post them on some website or, if we ever get around to re-starting a journal, submitting them for consideration.   
   Warmly, Adam
