Question

Stacy is telling a really funny story, but her friend looks mad. Which of the communication roadblocks is interfering with this conversation?

Answer 1

Any answer choices?

Answer 2

Well, it seems that Stacy doesn't understand her friend is mad. So the communication roadblock is that, instead of telling stacy she's mad, the friend just acts mad. And I'm sorry if this isn't helpful. It was a lil confusing

Answer 3

my choices are too close for comfort, evil eye, devil's advocate, and reach out and touch someone

Answer 4

Well, immediately we can rule out two of the answer choices. We can rule out "reach out and touch someone" because it never says that Stacy "touched" her friend, and we can rule out "too close for comfort" as well because being mad isn't a sign of the roadblock "too close for comfort"

This leaves us with the answer choices: Evil Eye, and Devil's Advocate

Do you know what these two mean?

Answer 5

I have no clue, this was a bell ringer for my summit life skills class

Answer 6

Ah, well we can also eliminate "Evil Eye" since evil eye is usually used to describe someone with ill intentions or wishing harm on the other person. In this scenario, Stacy's friend does not wish harm upon her, she's just mad.

Meaning the answer to this question would be: "Devil's Advocate"

Answer 7

thank you!!

Answer 8
