ZIMERMAN, David. The importance of groups in health, culture and diversity. Vínculo [online]. 2007, vol.4, n.4, pp. 1-16. ISSN 1806-2490.

Initially the article praises the importance of the application of group dynamics, and describes some of the main phenomena from the group field. Following, there is a "general classification of the groups" in its diverse and multiple applications, as in the mental and somatic health. Finally, the work approaches the interactions that exist between "Groups and Culture", that can be evidenced through a diversity of groups, which it is illustrated with some examples.
