1
My question is, what does this listening posture look like over time?
2
And with your knowledge of personal psychology,
3
I think we can all say we've somewhere encountered one of those relationships where one person does all the work
4
and the other person can't engage in this, even if they have been listened to over and over and over again.
5
But at our society level, if that does happen, now let's try it.
6
I totally agree with you.
7
Let's listen.
8
If we wind up in this, sometimes it's always listening and it never turns into listening back.
9
Right.
10
What's that look like over time?
11
You do test for reciprocity.
12
So children, for example, when children are investigating potential play partners on the playground, they'll come up to a child,
13
let's assume a child of roughly the same age, because that would be the most common situation.
14
Maybe we're talking about kids who are four or five years old.
15
And they'll throw out a play gesture that's rather simple, so maybe that a two -year -old could manage.
16
And then if the person manages a proper response, then they throw out a little more sophisticated and if the person responds appropriately,
17
then they ratchet up to just above their developmental level, and then they play like mad at that level, and that'll make them friends.
18
And so partly what they're testing for there continually is whether there's something approximating reciprocal altruism, right?
19
It's tit for tat in the positive sense.
20
And I would say that, well, we know there's actually a literature on this, which is quite interesting.
21
This is also something very practical to know, and I'll get to another practicality here.
22
So there have been psychologists who've done empirical investigations into what predicts the longevity of a relationship.
23
And so here's one experiment that was conducted multiple times and I believe this is very reliable data.
24
So imagine you have the two partners in a marriage, each rate the number of encounters they have with their other partner a day.
25
It's kind of an arbitrary and subjective measure but it doesn't matter.
26
You might say, well I talked to my wife eight times today we had eight different interactions.
27
And then you'd say, well, did you rate those for whether they're positive or negative?
28
And then you can calculate a ratio of positive to negative.
29
And then you can use the ratio to predict the longevity of the relationship.
30
And the data show that if the relationship interactions fall below five positive to one negative,
31
then the relationship deteriorates and is generally doomed.
32
And so five to one, that's preponderance of positive interactions,
33
but we're wired so that negative interactions hurt us more than positive interactions help us if they are of the same magnitude.
34
So, for example, people will work harder to avoid a loss of five dollars than they will to attain a gain of five dollars.
35
And you might say, well, why is that?
36
And the answer is you can be absolutely dead, but there's only so happy you can be.
37
And so it's bare to err on the side of conservatism in the domain of negative emotion.
38
And so, but interestingly And interestingly enough, if the interactions rise so that they exceed 11 positive to one negative,
39
the relationship also deteriorates.
40
And so what that suggests is that there's some, it's sort of like smiles with teeth, right?
41
You want a fair bit of positive emotion and reflection from your partner, but you don't want them to be a naive,
42
dependent pushover who's afraid to stand up for themselves.
43
And so you want to, you know, because you're a nasty, horrible human being, and now and then you poke your partner just to see if there's anything there, because that's what you're like, and if you find out there isn't,
44
you'll run roughshod over them, and you think you won't, but you will, especially if they're very good at implicitly encouraging that, which dependent people sometimes are.
45
So you do assess for reciprocity,
46
and the basic rule is you want approximately equal reciprocity in relationships that you want to maintain.
47
Now, maybe, you know, you have enough additional resource to be the giver more often than receiver in some relationships, but I don't even think that really works that well with children.
48
You know, I mean, you obviously have to take care of them, but it's not like they don't deliver the goods to you if you have a good relationship with them.
49
And you want to, to some degree, to enforce that reciprocity.
50
Now, you might say, well, what happens in relationships where that's impossible?
51
And, well, I give you a practical piece of a suggestion on that front, and this is another thing you can do in your own household.
52
This is so useful.
53
Man, if you get good at doing this, your life will get so much better.
54
You can't believe it.
55
Is watch the people around you, and whenever they do anything that you would like to see repeated on a regular basis,
56
tell them exactly what they did in detail.
57
with, you know, be positive about it, obviously, and just indicate that you noticed.
58
And because I saw this when I was grading student essays, you know, and so I taught this seminar for a long time, and I was trying to teach kids how to write.
59
They were in their fourth year of university in the Honours Psych Program.
60
You'd think they'd bloody well already know how to write, but they didn't.
61
And so I'd have them write a four -page essay on a given topic, and then they had to rewrite that to a six -page essay, and then they had to rewrite that to an eight -page essay.
62
And the first essay I graded was only 5 % of their grade, and I told them, I'm going to cut you into ribbons, but it doesn't matter because it's, you know, 5 % of your grade,
63
and so they could tolerate that.
64
And generally, by the third essay, they had written the best thing they'd ever written in their life, and they learned so fast it was unbelievable.
65
But one of the things I noticed was that they did a little testing with the first essay.
66
They'd hand in something.
67
And he was just like, God, formulaic, boring.
68
They weren't in it at all, you know.
69
There was nothing of the person in there.
70
There was no thought.
71
There was just the kind of psychobabble that they'd learned, especially if they were in faculties of education.
72
And it was dry and dull, and everything about it was wrong.
73
And so those are hard to grade, right?
74
It's like, what's wrong with my essay?
75
Well, the words aren't right.
76
The phrases, they're not so good.
77
They're not organized well into sentences.
78
The sentences aren't sequenced well in the paragraphs, the paragraphs don't make a coherent argument, and the entire thing is empty.
79
But other than that, no problem.
80
It was often easier just to rewrite those essays than to grade them.
81
So, in any case, though, one of the things I did learn was that even in an essay like that,
82
there is usually like one sentence or two sentences buried on like page three that was an actual thought
83
and reasonably clearly stated and somewhat gripping, you know.
84
It was like the person popped out from all the background rubbish and said, well, what about this?
85
And if you saw that and checked it and said, hey, you hit the mark right there, the next essay would be like two -thirds that.
86
And that was really fun to see.
87
And then maybe by the third essay, maybe it was all like that.
88
And then they were really thrilled.
89
It's like, wow, I wrote this, you know.
90
And it was sort of the culmination.
91
Well, it was a fourth -year seminar.
92
It was the culmination of their career as a psychology undergraduate.
93
So that was great fun.
94
But you can do that in your own household
95
if the envious part of you isn't jealous of the revelation of the goodness of the person.
96
And so here's the opposite tack if you want to do this.
97
So imagine that you're a man who's managed to attract a mate and he believes he's punched above his weight.
98
So this woman is more attractive, let's say, more vivacious, more desirable than he deserves.
99
So that's going to grate on his soul a fair bit, right?
100
Partly because her shining casts a dim light on his lack of utility, let's say.
101
And so you can imagine someone like that being prone to jealousy, for obvious reasons.
102
And so the best tact to manage in a situation like that, if you're that man, is to wait till your wife dresses herself up in a particularly attractive manner
103
and then either fail to notice by occupying yourself with something trivial while she's attempting to gain your attention,
104
or by criticizing her directly for what she's just managed to do.
105
And if you do that 50 times, let's say, you can be sure that she'll never reveal her attractiveness to anyone else for the rest of her life,
106
including you, and you'll get exactly what you deserve.
107
So that's the opposite of watching people carefully.
108
Now, I learned this in part from Skinner, B .F.
109
Skinner, the famous animal behaviorist, because he used all sorts of reinforcement contingencies to shape animal behavior.
110
Skinner was unbelievably good at this.
111
He trained pigeons in World War II to guide missiles by pecking at photographs,
112
so they could map the photographs onto the missile trajectory, viewing the territory underneath, and peck accurately enough to guide the missile to its destination.
113
That was discontinued as the technology for guided missiles developed, but Skinner could do that.
114
And, you know, we think pigeons, well, they're not that bright.
115
It's like, they're smarter than you think, pigeons.
116
That's why they can live in cities.
117
That's not easy for a bird to pull off, you know.
118
It's not their natural habitat.
119
And so, but Skinner, although he would use punishment, technically speaking, which is the application of a certain amount of pain,
120
or threat, which is the use of anxiety, but what he believed was most effective was reward.
121
But it required a tremendous amount of attention.
122
So, for example, if Skinner was trying to train a rat to climb up a little ladder
123
and then across the ladder and then maybe do a pirouette and come down, which he could do with no problem, he'd wait, he'd just watch the rat, and then when it got close to the ladder...
124
he'd give it a food pellet.
125
Now, his rats were starved, by the way, down to three quarters of their normal body weight, so they were pretty eager to work for food.
126
It's not something you necessarily saw in the methodology section of the papers, but...
127
Well, and that's not a critique of Skinner, it's just an indication of how simplification takes place in laboratory experiments.
128
In any case, he'd wait for the rat to get near the ladder and give it a food pellet.
129
And soon, the rat would be hanging around the ladder quite a lot.
130
and then now and then just more
131
or less randomly the rat would put a paw up on
132
the ladders food pellet well then the rat would hang around the bottom of the ladder with paw well
133
if he did that
134
continually through observation he could get the rat to do pretty much anything
135
that you could imagine a rat to do
136
and then maybe some things you couldn't imagine
137
and this isn't a manipulative technique by the way although it can be used
138
that way it's not effective unless you do it with a a certain degree of wisdom.
139
You want to think, well, what do you want in your house?
140
How about peace, tranquility, happiness and humor?
141
Something like that.
142
That's not a bad first -pass approximation.
143
And you want to get that in your head.
144
It's like, do you want that, or do you want the delights of endless martyrdom?
145
Because you have to make a choice, and you might think, I wouldn't pick martyrdom.
146
It's like, really?
147
Really?
148
You wouldn't, eh?
149
You'd pick peace and happiness and humor, and so everywhere you go, that's all you're ever surrounded with.
150
It's like highly improbable.
151
So don't be so sure you're aiming up.
152
But if you can orient yourself in that direction, and then carefully, and knowing full well what the hellish alternative is, because you need to know that,
153
then you can watch and see, well, when is this manifesting itself in the people around me?
154
And then you can tell them in detail, I noticed, son, I noticed.
155
Today, we're having a discussion at dinner, you know, and you made a spectacularly witty remark right at the right time.
156
And it was provocative, but not annoying.
157
And so, good work.
158
And then the kid thinks, oh my God, did he notice?
159
And then he's like twice as funny the next day, and maybe not in some unbearable manner.
160
And that really works.
161
It really works.
162
But like I said, you have to quell the envy that would otherwise beset you.
163
And you have to want to aim up.
164
And then you have to not be jealous of the other person's goodness and you have to be extremely attentive, but man, as a transformation technique,
165
even in extraordinarily difficult relationships, which goes back to your point, there isn't anything I know of that's more effective.
166
And I've been working with moderate Democrats in the United States recently
167
and with a number of Republicans and suggesting that to the Democrats
168
that when the Republicans do something that isn't absolutely malevolent and stupid, in your opinion, you might want to just say something.
169
Like, that's not as bad as it could have been, you know?
170
Something at least.
171
And the same for the Republicans in relationship to the Democrats, and that because it's also one of the ways that you can reduce the tit -for -tat proclivity, right?
172
You want to give the devil his due, especially when you're not actually talking to the devil, but just the person who's sitting across you, let's say in the house.
173
It's an unbelie - and people, that's another issue.
174
I mean, if you want people to appreciate having you around, learning how to listen, that is a skill that is absolutely unbeatable.
175
And this technique of summarizing to their satisfaction, that works like a charm.
176
And it's not, you know, you might be a little awkward when you first try it, and might feel a little manipulated because you're not that good at it, but if you get expert at it,
177
And you have the greatest conversations with everyone.
178
You know, I had people in my clinical practice who were extraordinarily impaired intellectually
179
and suffering from all sorts of assorted pathologies in addition to that.
180
And if I was listening to them properly, they were as fascinating as anybody I had on the more able and competent end of the spectrum.
181
And you learn so much because there is nothing that people won't tell you if you listen.
182
It is absolutely amazing what people will tell you and so quickly they'll reveal things they didn't even know about themselves.
183
And they need to know those things often.
184
They've been hidden for years.
185
It's so rewarding.
186
And then this use of attentive reward,
187
that's also, it's fun in a game -like sense once you learn to play it because you're watching.
188
You think, I'll just wait.
189
This person's going to do something good sooner or later.
190
It's like, pap, good work.
191
And people are so thrilled that that little manifestation of goodness in their heart
192
that managed to sneak out past their cynicism and boredom was recognized.
193
They're so, what is it?
194
It restores their faith in what's good inside them.
195
It really does.
196
It's unbelievably powerful.
197
And so that can work.
198
If you're embroiled in a difficult relationship, you know, and you can't escape easily, or maybe you can't escape on moral grounds,
199
that listening, that helps a lot.
200
You might have to listen a lot.
201
But that use of judicious reward, man, that's a powerful technique.

शैडोइंग तकनीक क्या है?
शैडोइंग (Shadowing) एक विज्ञान-समर्थित भाषा सीखने की तकनीक है जो मूल रूप से पेशेवर दुभाषिया प्रशिक्षण के लिए विकसित की गई थी। विधि सरल लेकिन शक्तिशाली है: आप मूल अंग्रेज़ी ऑडियो सुनते हैं और तुरंत इसे ज़ोर से दोहराते हैं — जैसे वक्ता की छाया 1-2 सेकंड की देरी से। शोध से पता चलता है कि यह उच्चारण सटीकता, स्वर, लय, जुड़ी हुई ध्वनियाँ, सुनने की समझ और बोलने की प्रवाहशीलता में काफ़ी सुधार करता है।
