WHAT IS COMMUNICATION?
Communication means to impart, to pass along, to make known, to give and receive information. The word “communication” comes from the Latin word “communis” which means common. Therefore, when we attempt to communicate we are trying to establish a “commonness” with another individual or with a group. In a basic sense we are trying to share.
Perhaps the most important communication skill is listening. Active listening is essential to effective family communication and is vital to hearing and being heard in the family unit. In active listening, judgment is suspended and the listener uses empathy to try to understand the person’s experience, feelings, and point of view. The key principles of active listening are:
• ENCOURAGE - Draw the other person out.
• CLARIFY - Ask questions to confirm what the person has said.
• RESTATE - Repeat in your words what the person has said.
• REFLECT - In your own words, tell the person what you think he or she is experiencing.
• SUMMARIZE - Reiterate the major ideas, themes, and feelings the person has expressed.
• VALIDATE - Show appreciation for the person’s efforts and acknowledge the value of talking.
