Group Development in Self-Help Groups for College Students.

Fuehrer, Ann; Keys, Christopher

Small Group Behavior, v19 n3 p325-41 Aug 1988

Examined applicability of Bednar, Melnick, and Kaul's model of early group development to college student self-help groups using undergraduates (N=101) who met in high-structure or low-structure groups. Found amount of group structure was positively related to ownership of group functioning; importance of performing group behaviors was positively related to group cohesion. (Author/ABL)
