Countertransference and projective identification are two concepts that are very useful when describing the dynamics of atmospheric processes and also more explicit issues in supervision groups. Researching both aspects of interpersonal relationship helps the group analyst to better identify and understand the emotional reactions in the group experience. However, it is important to see the different approaches of these two concepts. Projective identification deals with keenly involuntary and often unperceivable ego-syntonic actions and unconscious thinking related to early identificatory feelings.While other instances of countertransference are often comparatively easy to perceive, projective identification is considerably more difficult to recognize and therefore more difficult to work through. Concrete examples of countertransference and projective identification predominating countertransference respectively, as well as to commonly occurring, mixed forms of these emotional answers to supervision groups illustrate this.
