...Interpersonal Communication in the Movie Crash Jamillah Gleason COMM 200: Interpersonal Communication November 12, 2012 Instructor: Marcia Wynn Interpersonal Communication in the Movie Crash The movie "Crash" shows numerous examples of interpersonal conflicts between different characters in which all are interlocked with another. Interpersonal communication is "the process of exchanging messages, usually between two people, to create and share meaning" (Sole, 2011). This paper will identify one of the interpersonal conflicts of many that was poorly handled, and how it could have been dealt with in a different way. Conversation is an important part of connecting with others and forming relationships. It is the way things are said verbally or non-verbally to how an individual will react or decide to form a relationship with another. The character named Anthony is constantly struggling trying to prove that everyone is stereotyping black people. His constant complaining about stereotyping shows how low his self-esteem is to worry about what other people think. In the beginning he talks about how a waitress acted towards them by stereotyping. "That waitress sized us up in two seconds. We are black and black people don't tip, so she wasn't wasting her time. Now somebody like that, there is nothing you can do to change their mind" (Haggis, 2004). Anthony non-verbally self-disclosed a side of him that reveals that he also stereotypes individuals. ...

...Alex Vahhaji Comm 3561 Interpersonal Communications Dr. Vangelis Reflection Essay Chapter 12 Promoting Dialogue Chapter 12 discusses the concept of dialogue. It is described as a kind or quality of communication that happens when the people involved are present to each other as persons. In order for dialogue to occur the interaction must be unique, reflective, choosing, valuing, thinking-and-feeling beings. It is synonymous with interpersonal communication discussed in chapter 12. One concept within dialogue that I was able to reflect on was the idea of letting the other happen to me. I did this while I was in Europe last summer. When I was with my aunt who I do not know very well I let her culture influence me. We come from different cultures and hers is different then mine. She was born in Iran and has lived in Paris, France for many years. Her life was much simpler then mine and she was more drawn to simple things and beauty then other materialistic things. She acted as my tour guide while I was in Paris and I was able to connect to her interpersonally because I “let her happen to me”. Although we did not speak the same language we were able to connect to one another, and learn from one another in a way that was very interpersonal. It was a unique experience in which I believe has helped me make of my recent decisions regarding what I want to do after I graduate. The book defines letting the other happen to me as you allow who they are— especially their differences...

...Words and Relationships Jake Turner COMM 200 Interpersonal Communication Professor Janelle Harrison December 18, 2012 Words and Relationships As I read this article I was sitting close to my wife reading to her in order to get her perspective on this subject. After doing this I must agree with what this article says about couples and how they choose to use language styles amongst each other. After all using language is how we meet each other and grow closer together. As I have learned from this course so far, my communication skills with my significant other definitely should improve. However I do not agree with the results from the language style matching application. According to the site our communication was a .64 out a 1.00 which basically says that our communication styles are not that compatible (Bower, 2010). I think that there is more to being compatible with your mate then language styles alone. Although being able to share interests and being able to communicate are important, I just think that there is more to a successful marriage then what the author points out. One part of the article addressed a scenario involving speed dating and it reminded me of what the textbook labeled as trigger words. Trigger words are words that create an immediate emotional response when you hear that particular word (Sole, 2011). When you are in that type of setting you are only given a short amount of time...

...Angelica Gonzalez Portfolio Assignment (1 of 3) Bryant and Stratton College COMM 150: Introduction to Information Literacy and Research Ms. Eileen Anderson October 8, 2011 I believe there are core basic skills that can help you succeed in any capacity for school, work, and life as a whole. First and foremost, a positive attitude is necessary for you to succeed. Positive attitude is the ability to look at everything as though “the glass is half full” (Diaz). During difficult times you consider the good aspects to solve potential issues. Generally, things are not considered a problem but as an opportunity of growth and improvement. Staying motivated is another great quality to success. A self-motivated individual not only accesses what needs to be done, but will stop at nothing to ensure the task is completed. I consider myself to be a self-motivated person. I currently hold a support position at the South Buffalo Charter School. As the Office Manager, I am continuously compiling projects that need to be done in order for things to run smoothly for staff, children and families. There have been times that I have stayed late into the evening or have even come in on the weekends to get the job done. I consider it as just part of my job in order to ensure we are prepared for whatever a typical day may bring. In my current position, I am always trying to continuously improve our current procedures. As a member of support staff, I assist others in getting their...

...Communication is Key Stephanie Rose COMM 200 Prof. Holmes Sept. 6, 2012 Communication is Key Women tend to want to talk and men think that women should know what they are thinking without saying anything at all. This is often the downfall of a marriage, the failure to communicate. It depends on who you ask if self-disclosure is good for a marriage or not. Most women think that it’s good to talk about their feelings, likes and dislikes. Women will more willingly tell about things going on in their day with work or friends. Men, on the other hand, seem to think that women share too much. Men do not normally like to talk about feelings and they will not easily or willingly share their thoughts. Self-disclosure is a means of communication that needs practice, and all couples could benefit from it. It’s undisputed that communication is the key to any relationship. “Quality communication is defined somewhat differently from study to study, but research consistently has shown a link between happy marriages and "self-disclosure," or sharing your private feelings, fears, doubts and perceptions with your partner” (Schoenberg, 2011). Although, I believe that self-disclosure is a wonderful way to keep a relationship happy, I do not think many men believe in sharing there inter most thoughts and feelings. It has been my experience that when I tried to open the lines of communication with my husband, it normally ends in a comment like “do we have to talk everything...

...87 2004 by JOURNAL OF CONSUMER RESEARCH, Inc. ● Vol. 31 ● June 2004 All rights reserved. 0093-5301/2004/3101-0008$10.00 The Effects of Brand Relationship Norms on Consumer Attitudes and Behavior PANKAJ AGGARWAL* The key premise underlying this work is that when consumers form relationships with brands they use norms of interpersonal relationships as a guide in their brand assessments. Two relationship types are examined: exchange relationships in which benefits are given to others to get something back and communal relationships in which benefits are given to show concern for other’s needs. The conceptual model proposes that an adherence to or a violation of these relationship norms influences the appraisal of the specific marketing action and also the overall brand evaluations. Results of three experiments provide converging evidence in support of the theory. Branding and brand-based differentiation are powerful means for creating and sustaining competitive advantage. Prior research has examined differences in how consumers perceive and evaluate brands, for example, through investigating brand equity (Keller 1993; McQueen, Foley, and Deighton 1993), brand personality (Aaker 1997; Plummer 1985) and brand extensions (Aaker and Keller 1990; Nakamoto, MacInnis, and Jung 1993). More recently, researchers have noted that consumers differ not only in how they perceive brands but also in how they relate to brands (Fournier 1998; Muniz and O’Guinn 2001). This...

...Can We Talk? William Gaines Comm 200 Interpersonal Communication Professor Mary Anne Witt 4/22/2012 To relate to this article is a hard thing to do because the article is based on the marriage relationship, but if I was to change the marriage part I could very much relate to this article. The disclosure on just a relationship works the same the way, because without proper communication a relationship can turn sour really quick. Without knowing what the other person in the relationship is thinking then one could assume that the relationship is either a bust or things are going well. Based on a relationship stand point I have dated and some relationship I just did not find that I was happy or there were things about the individual that I did not like and I am pretty sure that they felt the same way about me bout we did not communicate this to each other therefore we just separated. After reading the article seeing that a lot of the past relationships that I was in ended really bad this could have been avoided by just talking to the individual and finding out what each other disclosures were. I do feel that the disclosure in a relationship is important after reading the article because it’s the back bone of the communication part of the relationship. Leaving out the disclosure is like leaving out a main ingredient in a recipe it will not allow the relationship to move further north or move to be positive because of the lack of the true communication from both parts...

...Effective communication is the most important ingredient in any type of interpersonal relationship. Whether the relationship succeeds or fails depends largely on the ability of the individuals involved to create a positive communication environment. Is a positive communication environment only the result of fate bringing two soul mates together? Are certain types of personalities just not meant to interact with other certain types? I believe, for the sake of any of my future relationships, that a positive communication environment is not left up to chance, but is created by applying certain principles and strategies. A communication environment is not defined by the activities that individuals participate in while spending time together, but by the emotional tone that is set during that time. According to Adler and Rodman (2012), “A climate doesn’t involve specific activities as much as the way people feel about each other as they carry out those activities” (p. 237). It is important to realize that the emotions expressed in a relationship are a precursor for either a negative or positive outcome. Showing positive emotions, such as; love, compassion, and understanding will only produce a healthy communication environment. Whereas, acting judgmental and showing disdain or contempt will most likely speed the decline of a healthy relationship. Whether I like it or not, a communication environment will begin to develop the moment I start communicating with another person either...

...Final Paper : Letter of Advice Denethri Arbor COMM 200 Interpersonal Communication Instructor: Donna Mitchell May 19, 2014 Dear Tim and Grace, RE: INTERPERSONAL COMMUNICATION IN A RELATIONSHIP Interpersonal communication is the “process of exchanging messages between people whose lives mutually influence one another in unique ways in relation to social and cultural norms.” Definition of emotional intelligence Emotional intelligence is the ability to recognize and achieve your own feelings and the feelings of others. It is commonly said to contain three skills: Emotional cognizance, including the ability to recognize your own emotions and those of others, “the capability to connect sentiments and apply them to errands like problem solving and thinking; the capacity to manage sensations, counting the ability to control your own feelings, and the skill to applaud or downcast another person.” Goleman (1996). Role of emotional intelligence in interpersonal relationships Emotional intelligence is the capacity to discern and act upon one's individual and others' outlooks and emotions. In our daily existence, “the interpersonal communication is the supreme form of verbal communication.” Goleman, (1996) Having the emotional intelligence necessary to comprehend how to interconnect with others is tremendously significant in interpersonal communication; from understanding how to converse with colleagues, parents, and children. Therefore, my main advice to Tim and Grace...

...Julie Thompson Dr. Rae Lynn Schwartz-DuPre Visual Rhetoric- Comm 430 March 11, 2015 Lion Embrace: A Critique of Anthropomorphic Animals “We humans seem to have admired Lions, and feared them and worshipped their nobility and strength for thousands of years” (Joubert, 2012, pg. 1). Nearly every human being has some sort of attraction to animals; whether it is their pet, a stuffed animal, or a fictional character. This human attraction to animals is common and natural, because it gives humans the satisfaction of interacting with another species in a playful manner. Kevin Richardson, otherwise known as “The Lion Whisperer” takes this human attraction to an entirely new level. Richardson is famous for rescuing and raising twenty-seven adopted lions from a game reserve in Johannesburg, South Africa. These lions were soon to be killed by hunters before Kevin Richardson stepped in and relocated these lions to his own land. He treats his felines as if they were equals, often wrestling, playing, and embracing them as if they were humans or as if he was a lion. For viewers these actions might be initially seen as incredible, witnessing a human interact so passionately with the King of the Jungle. Richardson states he is able to do this because he treats each individual lion differently, speaking to them, caressing them and, above all, treating them with respect (Roberts, 2007, p. 1). This relationship is a form of anthropomorphism, or giving animals human characteristics. The...
