W. R. Bion on Group Dynamics by Paramendra Bhagat (1165 words) |
 | Groups are formed with a loss of individual distinctiveness on the part of the individuals composing them and are defined as an “aggregation of individuals in the same state of regression (Bion 142).” Human groups have an element of instant recognition for each other no matter what the diversity in their cultural backgrounds. |
| The leader of the group plays an important role in sustaining it and is focal to its existence, but it is not true that the group is the invention of the leader, the opposite is. The group creates its leader who or, in the case of an idea being the leader, which sustains it. |
| The feelings that hold these groups are guilt and depression in the case of the dependent group, Messianic hope in the case of the pairing group, and anger and hate in the case of the fight-flight group. |
| Chemical Properties Within Groups (637 words) |
| The elements in the periodic table are divided into 18 (or 8) groups on the basis of their electron configurations. |
| The similarity in chemical properties within a group is reflected in the types of compounds formed by members of the group and is illustrated by their formulas. |
| In the elements of Groups I and 2, the valence shells are nearly empty. |
