Definition
- Sensitivity training groups provide training in a small-group setting for people who want to gain greater awareness and understanding of themselves and of their relationships with others. In contrast to psychotherapy groups, in which people seek relief through therapeutic intervention from an emotional disturbance (such as depression), sensitivity training groups generally involve people who are healthy yet have a desire for personal growth.
