Abstract
The role of humour in group psychotherapy has received scant attention from both clinician and researcher. We have identified, and attempted to classify, several uses to which humour can be put in a group. We also point out the destructive potential of humour, and categorize its misapplications. We hope our scheme will serve as a framework within which systematic research can be conducted.Keywords
