Please do below discussion, I will attach group scale below.

For the first part of this post, I would like you to complete the following self-assessment: Group Scale – 1. After completing the scale, answer the following: What did you learn about yourself? Do you behave “well” in groups or “not so well”? Do you engage in more “task-oriented”, “relations-oriented” or “self-oriented” behaviors? What types of groups do you think you would thrive in?

For the second part of this post, I would like you to think about two different groups that you have been a part of. Think about one group (i.e., your “good” group) that performed well, and one group that had a lot of problems/issues (i.e., your “not so good” group). Use the following scale to evaluate both groups: Group Scale -2 (remember, you are completing the scale two times — once for your “good” group and once for your “not so good” group). After completing the scales, answer the following: How do the scores differ between the two groups? Are these differences in scores consistent with your own experience as a member of both groups? What were/are the consequences of having a dysfunctional group (like your “not so good” group)? What are some ways (based on Chapter 9), that you could improve the functioning of your “not so good” group?
