The document discusses t-groups, a form of group training where participants learn about themselves and group dynamics through emotional sharing and feedback, guided by a facilitator. T-groups typically consist of 8 to 15 people and emphasize emotional reactions over judgments. Variants of t-groups exist, including the appreciative inquiry human interaction laboratory, focusing on strengths-based learning.
