Answer to Question 1

Answer: TRUE
Explanation: Person-oriented communication focuses on the characteristics of the individual rather than the event. It is problematic because while most people can adjust their behaviors, few can change their personalities. Person-oriented communication leads to a deterioration in the relationship rather than problem solving.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: FALSE
Explanation: The statement provides specific information that can be used toward behavioral change. Thus, the supervisor is practicing specific communication, not global communication.
