Abstract
A significant contribution by Alfred Adler to group counseling was the importance of early recollections (ERs). From a series of unstructured ERs, a group facilitator may identify participants’ values, goals, attitudes, level of social interest, mistaken or self-defeating notions about life, self, and others as well as predict possible future behavior. The article’s focus is on specific applications of ERs within group settings, such as an introductory exercise, an index of social interest, a kind of guided imagery,and an aid in intensive therapy. Additional uses include vocational decision making, pictorial representations of group perceptions, and a measure of a group member’s personal growth.
