What perceptions do group participants have about silent observers, what transferences are involved, what function can the listeners have for the group? In an anonymous survey and evaluation based on content analysis, almost all participants reported positive, and two thirds also negative impressions and perceptions. Observers were perceived as being familiar or supportive and as threatening or constraining to an approximately equal extent. There was no outright demonization or perception of a divide between the group leader(s) and the observers, as described in the older literature. Group participants also appear to perceive observers as representatives of their own superego, which are ‘silenced’.

Some tentative conclusions about the organization and management of relatively closed psychotherapeutic groups are illustrated by examples culled from private clinical practice. After reviewing the rationale of group psychotherapy and its advantages over the individual form, the paper deals mainly with patient selection, the developmental history of the group and group leader technique.
