Abstract
Member questions promote or impede progress in counseling groups. Counselors may process inquiries more effectively when they are aware of productive qualities and patterns of questions. SUMMARY Questions provide a versatile intervention when applied effectively in group counseling. Supportive, relevant, regulated, and expansive questions contribute to the progress of a group. Various processing strategies include assessing, converting, confronting, expanding, universalizing, linking, and controlling. “Let me ask you a simple question” is rarely the case in group counseling.Keywords
