Answer to Question 2

B
Group resistance may be observed when members form subgroups, conflict occurs, resistance occurs, or self-disclosure occurs. Individual resistance is demonstrated when a single member of the group denies having the problem the group is focusing on. Other examples include shared silence among members, scapegoating, wishing for magical solutions, and unusual amounts of group dependency.
