Let E be a free product of a finite number of cyclic groups, and S a normal subgroup of E such that E/SG is finite. For a prime p, Ŝ = S / SSp may be regarded as an -module. Whenever E is a free group, Ŝ is called a relation module (modulo p); in general we call Ŝ a relative relation module (modulo p). Gaschütz, Gruenberg and others have studied relation modules; the aim of this paper is to study relative relation modules.
