After reading about Transactional Analysis, Reality Therapy, Adlerian and Person-Centered groups, discuss which group theory you would find most fitting for the following scenario:
You are working as a school social worker and are planning to organize a group address bullying. You are hoping that the group can focus on prevention and plan to begin with a group of first graders. You have screened the first-grade class and selected the students you believe are most passive and the least likely to report being picked on in school.
In explaining your choice, be sure to explain why you think this theory would work best and which aspects of the philosophy, leader role and outcomes would apply in this scenario.
