Using the information explained in “Characteristics of Competent Communicators,” evaluate your communication competence in the context of one interpersonal relationship in which you are involved. Discuss the range of behaviors in which you engage, your ability to choose the most appropriate behavior, your skill in performing certain behaviors, your perceived levels of cognitive complexity, empathy, and self-monitoring operating in this relationship, and your commitment to the relationship. Be sure to explain this relationally, discussing the behaviors of the other person and describing how you adapt or fail to adapt to them.
