- What do you do if you mishear or misunderstand?
- Does asking for repetition always help?
- When wouldn’t it help?
- What do you do, if after repeating themselves, you still don’t understand?
- What kind of questions can you ask the talker to help you repair the message?
OBJECTIVES: (Relatedness)
- Who else might benefit from repetition or clarification?
- Have you ever seen someone else ask for repetition or clarification?
OBJECTIVES: (Autonomy)
- Do you feel comfortable asking someone to repeat themselves? Asking clarifying questions?
- When would you not feel comfortable?
- When would you give up and not want to try to repair communication? How could you re-engage? Who could support you when you feel this way?
