Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
FEEDBACK: A group therapy technique in which people learn about their feelings and about how they relate to one another is called an encounter group. Rogers wanted to bring a state of enhanced psychological health and functioning to a greater number of people, and so he developed this group technique.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C

He believed they made clients dependent on the therapist, who then assumed an aura of expertise and authority. These techniques removed personal responsibility from the clients by giving them the impression that the therapist knew all about them.
