The central concern of this research is interactional phenomena. The purpose of the study is to present a systematic way for dance therapists to look at group work and to develop a method for the description and analysis of interactions as they occur within the context of a dance therapy group session. Special attention is given to the organization of interaction and how the relationship of behavior to context gives meaning to interaction. Systems theory, in the particular form called context analysis, is the perspective from which the methodology is developed. A forty-four minute dance therapy session with psychiatric patients was videotaped. Data were described and analyzed in three separate contextual segments that were representative of how group members interacted with each other throughout the session. Interactive behaviors, the focus of the analysis within the segments, were viewed in two categories: behaviors that relate to the elements that identify a system (i.e. boundaries, wholeness, feedback, steady state and tensions); and aspects of behavior that identify how members organize each other interactively (i.e. formulations, orienting, positionings and accountability). The system elements and the behavioral aspects taken together, provide a framework for looking at interaction, serving as a guide for identifying the following: (1) How formulations of what the therapist directed the patients to do were established and how these messages were sent to the participants. (2) How the participants demonstrated that they did or did not get the formulated message, how they gave and got feedback from others about this, and how they checked out whether they were doing what was expected. (3) How the participants corrected for system tensions and interruptions and how they maintained their goals (steady state and wholeness). (4) How participants were held accountable to each other, to the system and to the formulated directives. The results of the analysis indicate that there is a describable organization and order in the interactive behavior of the members of a dance therapy group. Additionally, it is possible to characterize the dance therapy session as a system in which the members of the group jointly create and maintain interactions within the context of a session.
