Messages express content and relationship ANS✔✔ content = words or
subject matter
relationship = power the speaker has or does not have over the receiver
Punctuation of arguments ANS✔✔ - we subjectively judge when a speaker is
beginning a new idea or topic
-we create punctuation as the beginning and ending of thoughts
- in conflict, people attribute the beginning or cause of conflict to other
person
Digital and analogical codes ANS✔✔ Digital = content = words or subject
matter (no direct connection)
Analogical = relationship = voice, facial expression (direct connection)
When there is a contradiction between codes, we believe the analogical
code
Symmetrical and complementary interaction ANS✔✔ -statements may be
looked at in terms of power
-statement expressing power = one-up
-giving power to another= one-down
Symmetrical interaction ANS✔✔ both speakers exhibit identical behavior
competitive = relational dissatisfaction and physical violence
noncompetitive = initial outcome is satisfaction, but eventual outcome is
dissatisfaction
