Sommario/riassunto

'Group Dynamics' is a very complex topic. There are various definitions for groups, namely scientific ones and non-scientific ones. This



assignment specializes in the scientific definitions. A lot of scientists concern themselves with the formation, the types, and the complexity of groups.
