Swenson, Eva. (2007). Sociometric Processing "Dance Cards." These are aids to the use of a sociometric technique in which, in dyads, participants can be systematically helped to connect with others for feedback discussions. This technique was described by Eva in an article in the Fall 2006 issue of the Journal of Group Psychotherapy, Psychodrama and Sociometry, and is an aid in teaching about sociometry or exploring group dynamics. The "dance cards" technique is best used for groups that include anywhere from 5 to 30 participants, and the CD offers a variety of options, thus permitting you to wait until you know the exact number of people in the anticipated group session. The "cards" may be taken off of a ready-to-print CD-ROM, produced and available from Eva Swenson in Canada. It is available for $20 + postage. To order a copy, send an email to eva.swenson@sympatico.ca or phone 416-767-9991. She'll work out the postage for your address.
