This study attempted to construct a scale measuring encounter group members' perceptions of facilitator behavior and their reactions to the group facilitator. The items were gathered from the descriptions in an open ended questionnaire administered to 296 participants in encounter group sessions. Items were selected and categorized according to the hypothesized importance in encounter group process in the previous discussions on group facilitator. The content validity of the questionnaire was examined by four encounter group researchers. The questionnaire was then administered to 102 participants of nine encounter groups. Factor analysis was performed and four factors for facilitator behavior (i.e., facilitation of interaction, frankness in self-expression, domination for member and attitude of active listening), and two factors for members' reactions to facilitator (i.e., positive feeling and dissatisfaction caused by dependency) were identified. It was concluded that this scale was valid and could be used to examine the relationships between the facilitator and the members in encounter group settings.
