Riassunto:

This text examines seven frames of reference for group therapy. Authored by Marilyn B. Cole, this book describes the seven-step method in leading a group, and teaches the reader how the traditional body of knowledge in group dynamics applies to occupational therapy. This new edition includes information on co-leadership in today's practice, the pros and cons of its use, and how co-leadership can help therapists plan effectively and gain valuable feedback. Section 2, "Group Guidelines From Seven Frames of Reference", has been greatly revised to reflect the latest in group dynamics. Marilyn B. Cole has dedicated an entire chapter to Allen's Cognitive Disabilities Groups because of its extensive development over the past decade. Chapter 5, "The Behavioural Cognitive Continuum", represents an attempt to organize the many concepts and techniques occupational therapists use in group treatment, which relate to behavioural and cognitive theory. The chapter describing the Model of Human Occupation Approach has been revised to include new theoretical developments and research. The importance of occupational choices, habit maps and habitat, and roles and role scripts in the context of one's social group and culture are discussed. Existing chapters on humanistic, psychoanalytic, developmental and sensory motor approaches have been updated to include a focus section intended to highlight potential uses for each approach. Numerous activity examples have been added to reinforce learning and stimulate new ideas. "Group Dynamics in Occupational Therapy" concludes by outlining how to prepare for an occupational therapy group, from writing a group therapy protocol to the group laboratory experience.
