Question 1

What are the 4 communication styles?

Accepted Answer

The 4 main communication styles are: Assertive (expressing needs clearly while respecting others — the healthiest style), Passive (suppressing needs to avoid conflict), Aggressive (expressing needs at the expense of others), and Passive-Aggressive (indirect expression of anger or resentment). Most people have a dominant style with elements of others.

Question 2

How do I become more assertive?

Accepted Answer

Key steps: use 'I' statements instead of blame ('I feel…' rather than 'You always…'), state your needs directly and calmly, practice saying 'no' in low-stakes situations first, and maintain eye contact and a steady tone. Assertiveness is a learnable skill — this test shows where you're starting from.

Question 3

What is passive-aggressive communication?

Accepted Answer

Passive-aggressive communication means expressing negative feelings indirectly — through sarcasm, silent treatment, deliberate procrastination, or subtle digs — instead of directly addressing what's wrong. It often stems from discomfort with direct conflict, and can damage trust over time.
