Assignment 2: Nonverbal Communication and Culture

M2 Assignment 2 Submission   Assignment          Task: Submit to complete this assignment        Overdue – October 17 at 11:59 PM       Assignment 2: Nonverbal Communication and Culture   Using the Argosy University online library resources and the Internet, research the differences in culture and nonverbal communication. Every culture has a different understanding of what is appropriate nonverbal communication. In the United States, eye contact is a sign of attention or respect. In other cultures, eye contact is seen as rude and disrespectful. In this assignment, you will compare and contrast how a different culture you interact with in your daily life may interpret nonverbal communication differently than what is “culturally acceptable” in the United States. Make sure to take into account nonverbal gestures such as appearance, tone, space, eye contact, gestures, etc.  Based on your research and your personal experience, answer the following questions: •Explain why you picked the different culture that you are researching. How do you interact with that culture on a regular basis? •Compare and contrast the different cultures. Describe the similarities and differences in the way they both nonverbally communicate. •As the world becomes more global and cultures intersect, describe and analyze at least two ways you can use your findings in your daily life to help you be a more culturally competent communicator.

Memory Reconstruction and False Memories

What is False Memory Syndrome and how are false memories generated (according to skeptics)?What is Recovered Memory Therapy (RMT)?What is the evidence that would make one be skeptical of “recovered memories?”What implications might the research on memory reconstruction have for the credibility of “repressed” memories (e.g. of sexual/physical abuse in childhood) that are uncovered in psychotherapy?Does this credibility of repressed memories have any relationship to the type of questions or statements posed to the client/patient by the therapist? Explain.Lastly, be sure to include your opinion on the issue (with support, of course) of whether recovered memories are likely to be false or genuine, and how you can tell in any given case.If a repressed memory is simply a reconstructed (or false) memory that a person firmly believes is true, how can you explain how this reconstructed memory was created?
