Why Someone Else's Tone of Voice Hurts So Much (4K)
from Substratum 611 · host Aren Jayanthan
This one's about how the way you say something can matter more than what you actually say. A couple references to studies on tone of voice, then gets into how guys tend to offer logical fixes for emotional problems while women often do the opposite — and why that creates friction. When someone's being vulnerable with you, don't rush to fix it. Just hold it carefully, like they handed you something fragile.Emotivity in the Voice: Prosodic, Lexical, and Cultural Appraisal of Complaining Speech: https://doi.org/10.3389/fpsyg.2020.619222Listen to your mother: Motivating tones of voice predict adolescents’ reactions to mothers: https://psycnet.apa.org/doi/10.1037/dev0000827________________Website: https://www.substratum611.comShop Substratum 611: https://shop.substratum611.comSocial Media Links: https://www.substratum611.com/social-media-linksThis video is for entertainment purposes only.The focus is gaining clarity over agreement on different perspectives of various topics, with an emphasis on Continuous Improvement over Delayed Perfection.The views and opinions expressed in this video are those of the individual speakers and do not necessarily represent the perspectives of Substratum 611, any affiliated third parties, or the personal/professional affiliations of the speakers.
