Document Summary
In contrast to aristotle"s traditional model, the approach of carl rogers emerges out of communication theory and involves "see[ing] the expressed idea and attitude from the other person"s point of view. " Common ground, communication consensus: understanding inductive and deductive kinds of reasoning, using reason effectively, establishing authority and trustworthiness, appealing appropriately to audience emotions, acknowledging opposing views. Laying grounds for trust and openness: reaching consensus and mutual understanding, making concessions. Mixed: opposed relative to each (conciliation argument) other"s position: arguable claims, opinion, facts, and argument: Facts can be verified by observation or research, but opinions can be challenged. Fact: "the distance between the earth"s equator and the moon averages 384,400 kilometres. : now consider the following two pairs of sentences, each consisting of a fact and a related opinion. Fact 1: "according to moon-landing conspiracy theories, the 1969 apollo moon landing was faked. : opinion 1: "the apollo moon landing didn"t actually take place; it was all a hoax. "
