A framework for analyzing relationships between self-help groups and systemic organizational support is presented and two affiliation hypotheses tested. Self-help group birthrates in New Jersey over an 18-month period exceeded death rates. Affiliated groups greatly outnumbered independent groups but the birthrate for the latter was higher. Death rates for different types of groups were similar, except for Alcoholics Anonymous groups, which had a higher survival rate.
本文提出了一个用于分析自助团体与系统性组织支持之间关系的框架，并对两个隶属假设进行了检验。新泽西州18个月期间自助团体的出生率超过了死亡率。隶属团体的数量大大超过独立团体，但后者的出生率更高。除戒酒互助会团体生存率较高外，不同类型团体的死亡率相似。
