For each of the statements below, write a simple reflection and a complex reflection.
1. I drank too much wine at the party. So what? I was celebrating my new job.
Aren’t I allowed to celebrate? My husband is making a bigger deal of this than is
necessary.
2. I have been trying for 6 months to find a job but have not received one response.
It’s hopeless. I will never find a job.
3. My son is totally out of control. He stays out all hours of the night. I know he is
doing drugs. I can’t control him.
4. I know my anger issues cost me my job. I just can’t help it. I get angry, and I see
red.
5. It’s not that I am against taking medicine. I know I need it for my heart. I just

- Abstract:
- The development and evaluation of a measure of accurate empathy is described. The Helpful Responses Questionnaire (HRQ) is a brief free response questionnaire that can be administered to groups. Interrater reliability co-efficients for items range from .71 to .91, and reliability for total HRQ scores was found to be .93. HRQ scores rose significantly following a 2-day workshop on active listening and crisis intervention skills offered in 14 communities. Normative data are reported based on a sample of 190 paraprofessional trainees. Level of empathy was found to be modestly related to respondents' self-esteem. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
