1. Feedback from a number of sources.
2. A monitoring system that helps clients control impulses.
3. The best stimuli for clients.
4. A way for them to feel "normal."

Rationale: Due to the presence of many people, group therapy provides multiple sources of feedback. Group therapy may or may not provide the best stimuli, is not designed to help people feel "normal," and is not a monitoring system.
