| Popis | The main goal of this study was to examine the subjective benefits of participating in the men’s groups in the Czech Republic. The research was completed between 2011 and 2012 with 200 members of these groups. A special questionnaire, “Men’s group inventory—MGI”, which has five open-ended questions, was used for the purpose of this research. The answers were processed qualitatively. The results show the main benefit of being a member of such a group is the chance to freely share inner feelings in a secure environment. Research also suggests the need for honest communication and positive relationships among men in terms of helping them to mature. |
