不一致的成员资格是组中的主要问题之一。来自2所大学咨询中心的团体治疗参与者（N = 310）进行了为期7年的研究，以检查人际交往风格，期望和出席团体治疗。团体治疗问卷（R。R. MacNair & J. Corazzini，1994; R. R. MacNair-Semands，1996年，1997年，2001年）评估了客户的目标，物质使用和人际关系问题的期望组和出席。判别分析表明，愤怒的敌意和社会抑制是预测低出勤率。此外，客户与以前的治疗报告更积极的期望组，而那些报告更多的物质使用和更多的躯体症状有较少的积极期望组。治疗决策的影响进行了讨论。
Inconsistent membership is one of the leading problems in groups. Group therapy participants (N = 310) from 2 university counseling centers were studied over a period of 7 years to examine interpersonal style, expectations, and attendance in group therapy. The Group Therapy Questionnaire (R. R. MacNair & J. Corazzini, 1994; R. R. MacNair-Semands, 1996, 1997, 2001) assessed client goals, substance use, and interpersonal problems in relation to expectations for group and attendance. A discriminant analysis demonstrated that angry hostility and social inhibition were predictive of low attendance. Additionally, clients with previous therapy reported more positive expectations about group, whereas those reporting greater substance use and more somatic symptoms had fewer positive expectations about group. Implications for treatment decisions are discussed.
