Abstract

The research assessed the efficacy of encounter and marathon group experiences in inducing changes in perception of self and others and in personal and interpersonal dimensions of psychological functioning. Formulation and changes in attitudes toward the group were examined as well. Objective tests were administered to E and C groups consisting of graduate students in psychology. Forced-choice peer-nomination rating forms and attitude questionnaires were administered at various points in the course of the group to the E group. Peer-nomination data indicated Ss became more accurate in predicting how group members viewed them but did not change their self-perceptions in alignment with group ratings.
