Chapter 6:<\/span> Emotions and Communication<\/h2>\n\n\n

Emotions are feelings people experience. This chapter highlights the types of emotions, causes and consequences of emotion, and the role of emotion in communication episodes. After laying this foundation, factors that affect communication and emotions, including cultural norms, individual differences in emotional intelligence, and the interpersonal relationship context are discussed. This chapter also examines feeling of hurt, grief, and jealousy as especially poignant and challenging emotions that arise in a person\u2019s life. Digging deeper into these emotions highlights how communication can help people navigate difficult feelings. This chapter also provides suggestions for recognizing and communicating about emotions, developing emotional intelligence, and understanding what is happening when people are experiencing especially challenging emotions.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
