Types of psychological barriers
What is the psychological barrier of communication is the emergence of negative emotions between people. The reasons for the emergence of psychological barriers - appearance, difference in thinking, the desire to achieve different goals when discussing the problem, the difference of cultures. There are the following types of psychological barriers in communication. Types of barriers
1. The first impression of
At the first meeting of opponents, the decisive factor is how a person looks outwardly. First of all, attention is paid to clothing and only then mimicry, gesticulation, opponent's voice( confident, indecisive), mood, the current situation are estimated. For example: for some event comes a man dressed not on the occasion - as a result of which there is a psychological barrier, people do not know how to perceive this person, communication does not improve. Some people cause negative reactions to people who are emotional, strongly gesticulating, sloppy, or too bright appearance. Unpleasant words, thoughts, ideas, voiced by one of the opponents. If people communicate more than once, but the barrier still appears - this can be the situation that emerged, the mood of opponents.
2. Mismatch of thinking styles
As all people perceive the situation differently, different types of life - and when voicing some thoughts, opponents may not understand each other. It occurs when one person thinks theoretically, has a large amount of information, is able to analyze the situation, build a logical chain before something is done, and the other thinks in practice - that is, he accumulates information on his own experience, first tries, and then decides, it is necessaryhim it or not.
3. Mismatch of temperaments
Choleric is an unbalanced, quick-tempered man, takes with great enthusiasm everything new, but quickly cools, has strong gesticulation.
Sanguine - is considered the most balanced, energetic people, able to adapt in any team, quickly learns, with enthusiasm works, with great impact, leaders.
Phlegmatic - balanced, rather sluggish, the task in hand is always accurate, but slow, hard, hard to contact.
Melancholic - touchy, strongly experiencing any situation, sluggishly reacts, afraid of difficulties, tries to avoid unpredictable situations. The voice is quiet, inexpressive, hard to master in the team, subject to someone else's influence. I am pleased to carry out the assigned task, always on time and neatly, but I can not work in the team.
Such a mismatch by temperament type can be a serious barrier in communication, melancholic and sanguine people will never find a common language, as well as choleric and phlegmatic. Optimists and pessimists often go to the conflict because of the reluctance to understand each other.
Of course, in pure form these temperaments are rare, often people combine different psychological types and are able to adapt easily, but the difference in temperaments is still quite noticeable.
4. Difference between - objectives people are discussing one situation, but they hope to achieve different goals.
For example: the family discusses plans for the next vacation, parents plan to travel to another country - it is important for parents that the whole family be together and visit as many interesting places as possible, the child wants to go to a place where he can relax from his parents andmake new friends. In the end, they try to persuade each other, but if neither side wants to compromise, then a psychological barrier will arise and communication will stop.
5. Moral barrier - when one or more people in a group behave dishonestly, rudely, vulgarly, lie.
