Credit(s): 3
In this course, we’ll discuss the Dark Side of Interpersonal Communication. Many of us in communication courses recognize the positive behaviors that we engage in to make our relationships successful. However, relationships with romantic partners, friends, family, and coworkers/supervisors can also include a number of behaviors that damage our relationships and our abilities to communicate effectively and appropriately. We encounter jealousy and envy, aggression, hurt, abuse, lying, teasing and bullying, infidelity, uncertainty and secrecy, and criticisms and complaints in a variety of relationship contexts. We’ll examine these topics as well as theories of the dark side for what we know about the ways they damage relationships, what we can do to avoid (or overcome) them, and what studying dark side of communication means for employers.
