Varieties of learning in an experiential group.

Variously described as enhancing sentence, supporting professional identity, providing insight and introducing the resident to covert group processes, the experiential group has been a part of residency education for over 25 years. This article specifically focuses on and identifies the potential areas for learning about group process in such an experience. These areas are organized around the contribution of individual psychological, social-psychological, and group-as-a-whole issues in the group. Actualization of the learning depends on the psychological state and level of emotional preparedness of the individual member, the consultant's orientation and style, the composition and development of the group, and its relationship to the organization in which it takes place. An example is provided to highlight the areas of potential learning, and there is a discussion of some applications to the patient role and the practice of group psychotherapy.

Patients' perceptions of the therapeutic relationship and group therapy outcome.

The authors review the empirical literature examining the hypothesized relationship between the patient's perception of the therapeutic relationship and treatment outcome in group therapy and describe studies of both inpatient and outpatient group therapy. Their review indicates that, in contrast to the overwhelming evidence in support of the perceived relationship-outcome hypothesis in individual psychotherapy, there is no persuasive evidence in favor of the proposed relationship between the therapist-patient relationship and the efficacy of group treatment. The authors discuss the clinical and theoretical differences between individual and group therapy that would contribute to this result.

Touching: a legacy from the encounter movement for social work practice.

Human touching within helping relationship became especially prominent during the so-called encounter movement of the late 1960s and early 1970s. This indeed may be the movement's major legacy to clinical social work practice. As furor about the movement has declined it is now possible to take a look at its contributions. This paper examines social conditions that encouraged the use of touch as therapy and evaluates the possibilities of person-to-person tactile contact becoming an acceptable intervention in psychiatric and medical settings.
