Assignment 5: Effective Communication in Intimate Relationships
Imagine
a scenario in which two partners are discussing getting tested for
sexually transmitted infections (STIs). In this scenario, the partners
demonstrate through discussion their understanding of the symptoms of
STIs, the methods used to test for STIs, and the way in which STIs are
treated as well as their capacity to engage in effective communication
with one another about this sensitive topic.
Write out a role-play
conversation between the partners in which they make use of effective
verbal and nonverbal communication strategies (including active
listening, “I” statements, and emotional validation) to discuss getting
tested for and the possibility of getting treated for STIs. At the end
of your role play, produce a brief, 1-paragraph summary of how effective
communication was used.
Your script must be at least 650
words long. Your script should demonstrate accurate knowledge of
sexually transmitted diseases, and how to test for them as well as
knowledge of communication strategies. Use at least 2 references to
support your work.
If you would like, you may write a script
for a couple that differs from your personal experience (culturally or
in terms of orientation, for example) or even write a script detailing
how you would convince two clients of yours to get tested.
All assignments and forums in the class are designed for you to demonstrate your understanding and your
knowledge of the material content. It is never acceptable or
appropriate to simply provide information that is copied and pasted from
a source – any source. Even if the information were cited properly,
copying and pasting does not demonstrate knowledge.
