Study Notes
Characteristics of Incivility
- Low Oppositional Literacy: The ability to fairly engage with opposing arguments is lacking; twisting others' words undermines productive discourse.
- Change of Opinion Condemnation: Civil discourse allows participants the freedom to change opinions without facing contempt or excessive persuasion.
- Reduction of Meeting of Minds: Discourse where changing opinions invites scorn limits the potential for mutual understanding.
- Right to be Wrong: Individuals have the right to hold incorrect beliefs and evolve their viewpoints.
Invalidation
- (Im)politeness vs. Invalidation: While rudeness is noticeable, invalidation can be subtle and deeply impactful, leading to self-esteem and mental health issues.
- Intentional Invalidation: Actions aimed at undermining another person's perspective can create a toxic environment.
- Psychological Effects: Invalidation can manifest as low self-esteem, depression, and a sense of unease.
Strategies of Invalidation
- Creating Uncertainty: Keeping individuals unsure through ambiguous answers or withholding information generates confusion.
- Projection: Blaming others for one's feelings, suggesting that their actions are the source of personal emotions.
- Unwarranted Judgment: Offering negative evaluations that are not necessary or appropriate for the context, especially in professional settings.
- Generalizations: Exaggerating a minor error into a broader negative judgment that targets an individual's self-worth.
Real-world Example of Invalidation
- A research student, Willy, faces obstacles from Milly, a professor, who fails to provide course materials and responds dismissively, creating a hostile interaction.
- Repetitive Dismissals: Milly repeatedly deflects Willy's requests with vague assertions, intensifying his feelings of invalidation.
Importance of Judicial Temperament
- Discussing judicial temperament highlights its influence on courtroom dynamics and how it can either foster or hinder respectful discourse among participants.
