GROUP ASPIRATIONS AND THE DESIRE FOR GROUP ACHIEVEMENT.

Abstract

The presence of an objective, it is generally assumed, has a strong effect on the degree of coordination among group members as well as the group's cohesiveness, its interpersonal pressures, its leadership, and its social structure5 It is a curious fact, however, that the origins of a group's goal have had little scrutiny. A study was made to develop a better understanding of these sources. (Author)
