Abstract
Two different theories and techniques of group training, the T Group and the study group, have been described as facilitating learning about behavior in the small-group setting. These approaches arise out of different traditions and tend to view the same behaviors from disparate perspectives. This paper focuses on a comparison of the two models, with special attention to the ways in which authority and peer relations are viewed. The need for theoretical and technical amalgamation to advance our understanding of group phenomena is stressed.Keywords
