A massless scalar field minimally coupled to the gravitational field in a
simplified spherical symmetry is discussed. It is shown that, in this case, the
solution found by Roberts, describing a scalar field collapse, is in fact the
most general one. Taking that solution as departure point, a study of the
gravitational collapse for the self-similar conformal case is presented.
