    This is the primary factor that explains why people are not good listeners.

    • People usually prepare their next thought while pretending to listen.

    • People don’t maintain good eye contact.

    • People are distracted with their own thoughts.

    • People don’t concentrate enough on what is being said.

    Correct Answer
    A. People usually prepare their next thought while pretending to listen.
    Explanation
    People usually prepare their next thought while pretending to listen. This means that instead of actively focusing on what is being said, people are more concerned with formulating their own response or thinking about what they want to say next. As a result, they are not fully engaged in the conversation and may miss important details or fail to understand the speaker's perspective. This lack of active listening hinders effective communication and prevents people from truly understanding and empathizing with others.

    Nonverbal language is believed over verbal language when the two seem to contradict each other.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    Nonverbal language is believed over verbal language when the two seem to contradict each other because nonverbal cues such as body language, facial expressions, and tone of voice often provide more accurate information about a person's true feelings and intentions. Verbal language can be easily manipulated or misunderstood, but nonverbal cues are generally considered to be more genuine and reliable indicators of a person's true thoughts and emotions. Therefore, when there is a discrepancy between verbal and nonverbal communication, it is generally advisable to trust the nonverbal cues as they are often a better reflection of the person's true message.

    In art therapy, as much can be revealed by what is not drawn as by what is drawn.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    In art therapy, the process of creating art can reveal a lot about a person's thoughts, emotions, and experiences.

Therefore, in art therapy, paying attention to what is not drawn can be just as important as analyzing what is actually depicted in the artwork.

    • Self-parody

    • Puns and quick wit

    An oxymoron is an example of irony.

    • True

    • False

    The attribution theory is based on the idea of victimization.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True

This theory suggests that people tend to make these attributions in order to protect themselves from negative judgments or to maintain a positive self-image. Therefore, the statement "The attribution theory is based on the idea of victimization" is true.

    • Sarcasm

    • Self-parody

    • Irony

    • Black humor

    Correct Answer
    A. Sarcasm

Therefore, sarcasm may not be the best choice for maintaining a balanced and stress-free environment.

    Schismogenesis is a term to suggest that:

    • Our perception of reality is based on the limits of our vocabulary

    • When we are stressed, we exaggerate our own communication style

    • Type A’s have rapid and explosive speech patterns

    Correct Answer
    A. When we are stressed, we exaggerate our own communication style

This means that when we are stressed, we tend to amplify and intensify our way of communicating.

This can potentially result in miscommunication and hinder our ability to accurately express our true feelings.
