The aspects of my communication profile that have been validated this semester have been the Killmans result of conflict styles, my Heartland Forgiveness score, and my Verbal Aggressiveness Score.

Since I tend to avoid and the person I am having an argument with is not letting me avoid then my verbal aggression tends to come out because, since I feel under pressure and my go-to conflict style is not working, I tend to release aggression, because I don’t like to be put in uncomfortable situations.

When he acts out, this results in positive reinforcements from his mother. So, whenever he starts to act out because he doesn’t get what he wants, his mother complies, does and/or gives him whatever he wants, that way he doesn’t act out again. Eventually, this strengthens Dandy’s hostile behavior, his desire to kill/hurt someone.

The communication in the group appears to be inconsistent and does appear to harmful to some of the members. Certain members of the group are communicating verbally, others are communicating nonverbally and their behaviors are sending out intended and possibly unintended messages that is impacting the rest of the group in a negative way.
