摘要：
Objective: This study examines the psychometric properties of a measure of engagement for group work, the Groupwork Engagement Measure (GEM). Method: The measure's properties were tested at two different points of group development early and late group. The closed-ended groups were led by 13 graduate social work students and consisted of 86 student peers. Results: The measure had excellent reliability at both administrations, with coefficient alphas of .97 and low Standard Error of Measurements. The construct- and criterion-related validity analyses were generally favorable. Conclusions: The GEM is a promising tool for social group workers interested in monitoring and improving their service.
