What is meant by relationship-specific social decentering? Provide an example.
On May 15, 2024
-Social decentering helps us to understand our partner better,and that understanding allows us to choose effective strategies for accomplishing our communication goals,adapting to our partner's current behavior,and anticipating his or her responses.It is based on a specific relationship.
-Studies have shown that the more intimate the relationship,the higher the respondents' relationship-specific social decentering scores were,and the higher the relational satisfaction reported by both partners was.
-Relationship partners have expectations that their partner understands them and treats them in a manner that reflects that understanding.Repeated failure to display relationship-specific social decentering behavior is likely to contribute to relational dissatisfaction.
-For example,after getting angry with your partner for not doing the dishes as agreed,you are likely to get even more upset if you find that your partner didn't realize she or he had made you angry.
-Student examples will vary.

What is the main difference between a confirming and a disconfirming response to a message? Provide an example of each.
On May 12, 2024
-A confirming response causes the other person to value himself or herself more while a disconfirming response causes another person to value himself or herself less.
-An example of a confirming response would be,"I'm sorry,Becca,I know how frustrated you must be waiting for your test results-I know those results are important to you," to Becca's statement,"I'm worried that my cough may be something serious."
-A disconfirming response would be no response whatsoever,either verbal or nonverbal,or "Becca you're such a worrier-I had a cough a couple of weeks ago and I'm okay now.It's just something going around."
- Student examples will vary.
