Appendix D—Continued
1. Feedback should be requested by the receiver rather than
imposed.
2. Feedback should be given in a non-threatening manner,
3. Feedback should be specific rather than general.
4. Feedback should focus on the behavior rather than the
person.
5 Feedback should be "I'Vcentered rather than "You"-centered
(i.e., "I am confused by what you are saying," rather^
than "You are confused," because it is an opinion, and
you, the trainer, are not the final authority on the
subject).
6. Feedback should include strengths as well as weaknesses.
7. Feedback should concentrate on things the person can
change (e.g., "If my tone of voice annoys you, I can
alter it; but if you don't like my crooked nose, there
is little I can do about it").
8. Feedback should focus on.the sharing of ideas and infor-
mation rather than on giving advice.
9. Feedback is discussed between giver and receiver to
assure that what is being communicated is understood.
