Excerpts from transcripts of 20 validation therapy groups are presented. These demonstrate the surprising ability of the group memebers (all moderaltely demented) to share feelings and problems, follow a theme and utilize facilitating skills in the group setting. The contrast between the group members behavior outside the group is discussed and future research is proposed. The authors conclude that such groups constitute an exciting new therapy for those with dementia.
