Abstract

During the past few years, an increasing number of workers have devoted attention to the problem of evaluating the process of psychotherapy both quantitatively and qualitatively. The purpose of this note is to report a technique which appears to hold promise for eliciting additional information regarding certain aspects of the group therapy session. The procedure was used for several sessions with two therapy groups composed of male, psychotic, inpatients at a Veterans Administration hospital. Of 16 patients, only two were unable to cooperate.
