Revision as of 20:40, 4 November 2006

November Meeting Friday, November 3, 2006 at 3 PM EST (12 Noon PST)

Attendees

  • Susanne Jones - Working on degree in communication to help her credibility
  • Alexis Girnaut-Miller - Australian going between Australia and England.
  • Tom Caruso - Who everyone seems to know.
  • Marion Little - Masters in Dispute Resolution. Assessing NVC to teenage mothers for her thesis.

What research has been done.

No research except one article and several theses. Simon Beck - NVC and Integral Theory. Efforts of Frances Delahanty. Theoretical basis that Marion is working on. She talked to Marshall to find out his early influences. Quite a few inaccuracies to what Marshall said and what actually happenned. He remembers author but not book title for instance. So she's trying to put together accurate facts and then get them approved by Marshall. She is also working on getting anything that Marshall has written so she can piece it all together. Needs were only introduced in 90's and only wants were in model in 80's.

Alexis is interested in case studies in use of NVC in business. Charles

List of NVC Assumptions -> Hypotheses (Propositions).

  1. Our basic nature is cooperative and compassionate.
    • Mary Clark, In Search of Human Nature
    • J. Heath [from Marion’s lecture on 11/3]
    • Field of Primatology – bonabo chimps
    • Frances Collins, National Human Genome Research Institute - Language of God, 2006
  2. Our desire to get our physical and psychological needs met is the basis for our actions.
    • Key Differentiations – NVC Trainer Certification Package
    • Burton - Needs theory
    • Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs, Manfred
    • Neef – needs-based economy
    • Ghandi
  3. Our emotions stem from our needs. When our needs are being met, we feel positive emotions, when our needs are not being met, we feel negative emotions.
    • Field of Nueroscience - Candace Pert - The Molecules of Emotion
    • The Budhha
    • Thich Naht Hahn - Active Buddhism – Creating True Peace
    • Field of Cognitive Neuroscience Emotion and Consciousness by Lisa Feldman Barrett, Paula M. Niedenthal, and Piotr Winkielman
    • Anthony Hatzimoysis Philosophy and the Emotions, 2003
    • Coate & Roseti - The Power of Human Needs in World Society
    • Eisler, Raine, Tomorrows Children: A Blueprint for Education in the 21st Century, The Chalice in the Blade: A Partnership Education.
  4. Anger is a superordinate emotion. Underlying it is one or a combination of emotions such as fear, disappointment, frustration, resentment. Could turn this into a proposition. Is this an assumption about NVC or a general assumption? Is this an assumption that is necessary to practice NVC. Piece that would be a core assumption might be "A feeling vocabulary is important to express your experience more fully." There is an assumption around the need to increase your awareness of feelings and needs. Carl Rogers - A Way of Being. When we express any emotions without our needs we are considered to be less competent than when we use needs and requests as well. The opportunity is to measure the difference in perceived communication skill when people use feelings or NVC.
  5. Anger is the result of thinking process which implies that other party should not have done what they did that disappointed, frightened and hurt us. Attributional theory. When I want something I'm not getting. I'm expecting someone to give something to me. And by demanding it I will not get what I want. "When we're angry we're assigning blame." Connection to shaming, blaming whether to others or to ourselves.


     3)

4) Anger is a combination of a feeling or feelings mixed with a judgment of blameworthiness of others. 

     (References: work around Carl Jung’s work, Carl Rogers - A Way of Being)

5) Attributing blameworthiness to others is likely to lead us to withhold 

     communication or resources from others, and/or initiate verbal or physical 
     punishment against them.

6) Verbal and nonverbal negative affect is usually perceived as incompetent communication behavior. We are more likely to be seen as a competent communicator (effective + appropriate) when we express our feelings, explain how those feelings are connected to our needs, and then make clear requests of the person we want to meet our need. Therefore, it is important to increase awareness of one’s feelings and needs which can be facilitated by developing a literacy (vocabulary) about feelings and needs. (References: Daniel Goldman – emotional flooding & physiological testing which might show that, + as we engage our neocortex, the physiology begins to change?
