Answer to Question 2

Gottman's four basic communication problems are criticism, contempt, defensiveness, and stonewalling. Criticism involves attacking someone's personality rather than his or her actions: for example, You're boring instead of Can we do something different? Contempt is an insult that may be motivated by anger and is intended to hurt the other person: for example, I never loved you Defensiveness is a form of self-justification: for example, I was only trying to help, but I guess my feelings don't matter Stonewalling is a pattern of isolation and withdrawal: for example, verbally or nonverbally saying, I don't want to talk about this anymore
