Popis: The first group project I was involved in which could legitimately be called a token economy started in a long-term psychiatric ward some 4½ yrs. ago and ran for 2½ yrs. I do not intend to go into all the details of the project, as they have been published elsewhere (Presly et al., 1976) and the project was similar to others (e.g. Mumford et al., 1975). I want instead to describe some of the things I learned from running a token economy and also to raise a number of issues which seem to be all too seldom discussed in relation to token economies in particular and to psychologists' involvement with long-term patients in general.
