Although at times these labels may be accurate, many of us determine early in an interaction or presentation that we don’t understand the subject, don’t like the person, or find lit-tle of interest or importance in the message. We then tune out the speaker and spend our time thinking about other matters. By not listening to the message, we have no way to assess accurately the value of what we might have heard. Barrier Two: Emotionally Resisting Messages. Often we react quickly to emotionally charged words or subjects.
Often people's voices are not heard because they speak in ways that take quite a lot of effort to listen to properly. This can include having speech impediments, limited vocabulary, finding it difficult to organise thoughts into coherent order, forgetting what you wanted to say, or getting frustrated and angry. Of course it is also true that some professionals simply don't listen properly. In either case an advocate will help people to prepare and deliver a coherent statement of their needs or wishes, and being there with their partner also encourages other people to respond appropriately. Afterwards the advocate can also help their partner to remember what was said and to plan what to do
As the facts that I am a shy person by nature and that I sometimes do have some difficulty expressing myself, it doesn’t seem to be a major factor in some cases when regarding my relationship and social interaction other then instances if I end up clamming up and being indecisive around people I do not feel comfortable around. Other than that though, according to my friends and family, although at first it may seem I may be quiet, shy, and a bit hard to approach (I even had some friends who told me I looked angry or annoyed sometimes when they first met me) but, once you are able to find common ground, however small, and have constant conversations with me, I can actually be a quite expressive and in some occasions, very opinionated in my interests. This probably may prove the assessment that I may be this way is because think first before responding as not only a sort of defense, but to also help me decide how to handle things later on. If anything, I feel mostly comfortable with how I am and really would change much. I think the only times I would consider it would entirely depend if a situation is dire
This question does not suggest that your audience is stupid or uneducated. As we saw in Chapter 1, there is a great deal of confusion today about such matters as free will, truth, knowledge, opinion, and morality. Many intelligent and educated people have fallen victim to ideas and attitudes that cripple their creative and critical faculties. In many cases, your audience will appreciate your insights only if you first help them get beyond their misconceptions. Is Your Audience’s Perspective Likely to Be Narrow?
The interview would also put pressure on us by looking at that us all the time instead of writing something down to make it look professional. I would also sometimes speak too fast which showed I was nervous which wasn’t good for the role play we was doing. How we could have improved the interview There are many ways we could have improved the interview for example we could have practice the role play and remembered the lines better. The interviewer could have pretended to write something which would have put less pressure on me which would have made me less nervous. At the end instead of only asking 2 questions I could have asked one more which would look really professional.
This meaning that it will be difficult for them tells when a person is turn is finished due to the persons uttering and stammering. This can be improved by giving each person a certain amount of time to speak and to prompt them when the find it difficultly with coming up with the right words. A weakness of our group was proximity as there was hardly any real personal space between the people talking. This meant that it was bit personal or anyone that felt uncomfortable due to their being a lack of space. As the situation, was informal however we’re strangers to each other it was very usually to be in someone’s who a stranger is to you means you may be less likely to ask questions.
People cannot show the result of being or prejudice because people are known to select things that they are more familiar with, things that they are more commutable with, and things that they see in their everyday environment. This is just human nature so this is the reason why I say that it is hard to accurately measure
When I work with other people in groups, I feel a little at ease because I can get a different look at the situation at hand. When people speak about what they know it is usually what they were raised on. So, that is why people have different outlook and thoughts about curtain situations. Some people do not talk when they are in collaborations at that is because they may not feel like they are included or they may be shy. That can be a disadvantage for both me and the other class
Exercise 1.1 Specific ways I need to change to be a more helpful person is to always look for the other person first and not just for myself. I have a tendency to put myself first instead of others and I really need to work on this quality. I have great listening skills and make eye contact but I don’t move around when I talk so I feel that would make me a more helpful person also because they would not be bored. Exercise 1.2 If I saw a professional with these labels I would think great they were except for the shrink because might make you think down on yourself instead of there to help you with your problems. These people are all very special and help to provide help in so many ways to help to get a job, a home, medical assistance, to just help with everyday living.
When I was taking the IAT, I did not feel that it was effortless and habitual, I found myself frequently forgetting which side each category was on and having to glance at them to remember. I felt like I was frequently expressing my explicit attitudes toward these words, but implicit attitudes are so hard to measure that maybe it really was my implicit attitude. Why did it provide opposite results then? This test is supposed to be able to measure my implicit attitude based significantly on my response time to categorizing various words into correct groups. I can understand the concept that we will respond quicker when two categories that we implicitly associate are grouped together.
