Gruppentherapieprozesse: Eine klinische Forschungsperspektive

  • Chapter
Gruppenpsychotherapie

Zusammenfassung

In diesem Kapitel wird ein forschungsbezogenes Modell für Gruppenprozesse vorgestellt, in dem zwischen der Gruppenstruktur („Anatomie der Gruppe“) und dem Gruppenprozess im engeren Sinne („Physiologie der Gruppe“) unterschieden wird. Befunde aus der Gruppentherapieprozessforschung zu beiden Bereichen werden zusammengefasst. Bezüglich der Gruppenstruktur liegen besonders verlässliche Befunde vor zur Vorbereitung, Formatierung und Zusammensetzung von Gruppen sowie zu den Aspekten Normen, Subgruppenbildung und Gruppenentwicklung. Neben Kenntnissen über basale sozialpsychologische Mechanismen, die in allen Gruppen wirken, gibt die Prozessforschung Auskunft über die Bedeutung therapeutischer Faktoren, speziell des interpersonellen Feedbacks und der Selbstöffnung, sowie zur Gruppenkohäsion.
