Abstract
We have presented some observations regarding group therapy. In the opinion of the writer, group therapy has certain specific and unique advantages for the acutely disturbed patient of the type described. These advantages are: (1) schizophrenics appear to be able to understand one another's behavior and symbolic productions successfully; (2) the learning of new behavioral patterns or modification of old behavior is best achieved for some patients in group therapy; (3) group therapy facilitates the transition and adjustment of the patient to the hospital, and to discharge from the hospital; (4) group psychotherapy greatly facilitates the patient's ultimate adjustment to society.
