Emotional Pain in Learning: Applying Group analytic Experience in Non-Clinical Fields

North Carolina State University, nichol{at}ncsu.edu

This paper considers the implications of emotional pain in learning and personal change. Such pain is a characteristic feature of the experiential group and one which therapists take for granted. Pain is also a feature of professional training and development in areas such as management and teaching, but one which is not acknowledged. A theory of emotions in learning and personal change in professional development would be helpful in applying group analysis to non-clinical fields.

Key Words: emotion • emotional pain • group analysis • learning • professional development
