Heterogeneous group - ANS-a group where the members are dissimilar. A general
therapy group which has clients with various problems and backgrounds would be an
example. The group is more like a microcosm of the social system most of us live in.
Moreover, when you combine people you discover that people can learn from each
other and this is said to facilitate personality change.
Homogeneous group - ANS-a group where the members are very similar or alike, such
as Weight Watchers. Since everyone has the difficulty or concern (weight loss or
alcoholism, etc.) people often feel a greater degree of "we-ness" or cohesiveness.
Some experts are convinces the homogeneity in terms of intelligence and levels of
development is desirable. In children's groups, this would mean an age span of no more
than two years (e.g., 10- to 12-year olds). [Generally persons who are similar will sit
next to each other; in groups, "likes" attract.]
Closed group - ANS-Only a set number of specific members are allowed, no one else
can join this group.
Open group - ANS-This kind of group therapy structure is flexible and allows members
to come and go as they desire (e.g., AA Groups)

Reinforcement while conducting group therapy - ANS-makes the behavior stronger by
following the behavior with a pleasant stimulus; A form of conditioning whereby the
individual receives something desirable; consequence of his or her behavior reward that
increases probability of its recurrence; Increases the probability that behavior will occur.
Functional analytical psychotherapy - ANS-The main techniques include observing,
evoking, reinforcing, blocking and extinguishing clinically relevant behaviors.
Observing - ANS-occurs when the therapist watches clinically relevant behaviors and
the effects of his or her own behavior on client behavior. The therapist also watches
group members effects on each other.
Evoking - ANS-acting in ways that make it more probable that the client will emit a
target behavior. Most often the therapist will prompt a behavior that was targeted for
development, but in certain cases it will be necessary to prompt a problem behavior first
to be able to create a learning opportunity.
Reinforcing behaviors - ANS-reacting to a client's behavior in ways that will increase the
probability of a similar behavior happening in similar situations.
Blocking a behavior - ANS-making it impossible for the behavior to be executed in a
complete enough form to allow it to contact a reinforcing consequence. For example,
interrupting the client.
Extinguishing a behavior - ANS-withholding the relevant reinforcement each time the
target behavior occurs.
monopolists - ANS-may need individual therapy to self-discover/self-reflect; the
therapist may increase leverage by encouraging this client to discuss interpersonal
difficulties in their life, loneliness, lack of close friends, not be listened to by others
silent client - ANS-the therapist must balance placing undue pressure on this client and
allowing the client to an extreme isolate role. The meaning of the silence should be
explored; there may also be silent gestures which communicate their feelings that could
be used to include them into the session
