Differences between persons seeking encounter group experiences and others on the Personal Orientation Inventory.

Abstract: Differences on the Personal Orientation Inventory between 39 males and 40 females who participated in encounter groups and 40 males and 44 females who declined to participate in such groups were examined. Differences discovered are attributable primarily to the more self-actualized nature of the females who sought encounter group experience.

“…Rather, samples of both clinical and nonclinical participants were included in the meta-analysis and collapsed for all analyses. Past research that has compared the psychological adjustment of clinical and nonclinical samples undergoing GST revealed that the two groups actually displayed comparable levels of psychopathology and experience in psychotherapy (Kirsh, 1974; Lieberman & Gardner, 1976; Noll & Watkins, 1974). Thus, the validity of the present meta-analysis was not compromised by the combining of studies with different participant characteristics.…”

Gopinath (2020 d) found influence of age on self -actualization and the younger people has more urged for achieving heights than older one.…”

“…Researchers have shown that self-actualization is influenced by various demographic factors like gender (Noll & Watkins, 1974), family environment (Gaspard et al, 2011) and educational qualification (Gopinath, 2020).
