Question 35 • FL-1400300-Peer Counseling 1 (IS)

Which statement BEST explains the difference between a purpose and a goal?

Answer
A
The purpose defines the logistics. The goal determines if the group is a success.
B
The purpose is why the group was formed. The goal is the result of the group effort.
C
The purpose is determined by one person. The goal is set by all members of the group.
D
The purpose can change over time. The goal remains constant for the life of the group.

Explanation

A purpose explains why a group was formed; a goal describes what the group aims to accomplish through its effort. Therefore, the statement that the purpose is why the group was formed and the goal is the result of the group effort is the best explanation. The other choices incorrectly define purpose or goal by logistics, who sets them, or whether they change over time.
