 abstract = {THE analysis of the group therapeutic process that follows is based upon the writers’ own experience with this form of treatment as employed in the Students’ Mental Hygiene Clinic of the University of Minnesota during the past decade. To discuss and evaluate theories is not its aim. Though certain theoretical assumptions underlie the analysis, and though a speaking acquaintance with basic psychoanalytic concepts is taken for granted on the part of the reader, these have not determined the structure of the book or influenced its main design. The purpose throughout has been practical and empirical. It has been to illuminate},
