In this assignment, you will find a movie or a television show that has a scene with an argument between two people who are romantically involved. You will discuss the issue of effective listening skills by taking the perspective of one of the characters in your chosen movie or television show.

After you have watched your chosen movie or television show, provide insight into how effective or ineffective you believe your character was in attending to, understanding, and responding to the partner.

In addition, include answers to the following questions:

Question 1: Attending

• How carefully did your character pay attention to the other character's messages? For example, how much attention did your chosen character pay to what the other partner was saying?

Question 2: Understanding

• How well did your character understand his or her partner?
• Did any of the three principles of understanding help them understand one another? Explain.
• Which principles might have accounted for any misunderstandings that occurred in their conversations? Explain.

Question 3: Responding

Responding includes both verbal and nonverbal elements. When discussing this part of your character's conversations, be sure to focus on both the characters’ words and their actions.

• Did one character invade another's physical space?
• Did the characters make eye contact with each other?
• Did their actions ever contradict their words?

Critique at least two of your classmates' posts. Your responses should be substantive and elaborate on your thoughts, bringing in terms and ideas from your text and classroom materials to support your ideas.

To support your work, use your course and text readings and the South University Online Library. As in all assignments, cite your sources in your work and provide references for the citations in APA format.
