Abstract

There are various interactional and interpersonal nature for 'the group by itself' in group counseling. It seems effective to focus on such nature rather than on intra-psychic components because of observational learning and interpersonal learning which are powerful therapeutic factors in group counseling. Korean culture belongs to vertical collectivism and develops altruism for others and the concept of rank on the ground of the value view of the society. The aim of Reality Dynamic Group Counseling is to help people depend their opinion and adjust themselves to society. To accomplish such aim, the counselor for Reality Dynamic Group Counseling makes people recognize that people are so valuable, know how to use the technique of confrontation, and take role of a wise man. The difference between Reality Dynamic Group Counseling and other several group counseling is that Reality Dynamic approach is held realistically, the solution for each problem is offered as much as possible, and persuasion can be given if necessary.
