Critical Thinking Question from Reading: what are the four ways of responding, and how does knowing which is the kindest response style help us understand where else such knowledge can be pertinent in other types of life?
o Exercise in “far transfer”: draft a scenario in which we can apply the four ways of responding to another type of relationship (not marriage).
1. Who is the relationship between?
2. What is the scenario news given by one of the people?
3. What are example reactions of each type of response?
1. What are similarities that you can define/classify between a marital relationship and the one you chose to create responses for?
- Purpose
- Benefits/gains
- role of communication
- hierarchy / positions of authority
- cultural value / cultural beliefs
- importance of kindness
- psychological considerations
- ...
2. To further connections, what terminology from original source can you apply to your comparison relationship?
- Masters and disasters
- "kindness as a muscle"
- kindness as a learned trait
- bids
- "joy-killing"
