A group leader states that he respects the competence and responsibility of members of the group but gets annoyed when one of the group members "takes over" a group meeting. The group leader is demonstrating the interpersonal need for:
1. Self-respect.
2. Religion.
3. Control.
4. Social reasoning.
3
Rationale: The interpersonal need for control is the need to establish and maintain a satisfactory relationship between oneself and other people with regard to power and influence and maintain a feeling of respect for the competence and responsibility of others to a satisfying degree to oneself. The group leader has a desire to control the group, but does not want to be controlled by any of its members. Religion, self-respect, and social reasoning are not among the three basic interpersonal needs.
