Summary of APLICANDO LAS CATEGORÍAS DE BALES - GRUPO N° 3 - T RABAJO SOCIAL CON GRUPOS
Summary of Video Content
The video presents a detailed explanation of how to apply Bales' Categories in social work with groups. The discussion is led by a group of students, each taking turns to present their observations and analyses based on a structured Observation Template. The key points covered in the video include:
- Introduction to Bales' Categories:
The video begins with an introduction by Professor Claudio Uriel Castillo and the group members, emphasizing the importance of Bales' Categories in analyzing group interactions.
- Observation Template:
An Observation Template is used to identify the observed person and the observer. Behaviors and attitudes are scored on a scale of 1 to 12.
- Analysis of Interaction Process:
Scores are interpreted to analyze the interaction process using Bales' Categories, which include:
- Communication Problems (a)
- Evaluation Problems (b)
- Control Problems (c)
- Decision Problems (d)
- Tension Reduction Problems (e)
- Integration Problems (s)
- Scoring Methodology:
Scores for each problem area are calculated by averaging relevant categories:
- Communication: Categories 6 and 7
- Evaluation: Categories 5 and 8
- Control: Categories 4 and 9
- Decision: Categories 3 and 10
- Tension Reduction: Categories 2 and 11
- Integration: Categories 1 and 12
Results are also summarized by areas:
- Positive Reactions (A): Categories 1, 2, 3
- Timely Responses (B): Categories 4, 5, 6
- Question Area (C): Categories 7, 8, 9
- Negative Reactions (D): Categories 10, 11, 12
- Individual Observations and Interpretations:
Each group member presents their observations of a peer, detailing scores and interpretations of behaviors. Observations highlight strengths and areas for improvement in communication, evaluation, and control within Group Dynamics. Examples include observations of solidarity, humor, and the ability to harmonize with others.
- Conclusion:
The group concludes by summarizing their findings, noting that the highest scores were in areas indicating positive reactions and timely responses, suggesting effective Group Dynamics.
