4 Steps of Perspective Taking
4 Steps of Perspective Taking
• When you come into my space, I have a little thought about you and you have a little thought about me.
• wonder “why are you near me?,” “what is your purpose for being near me?” “Is it because you are just sharing the space, do you intend to talk to me or do you intend to harm me?” I have to consider all these things in order to keep me safe around people as well as to predict what will happen next.
• Since we have thoughts about each other, I wonder what you are thinking about me.
• To keep you thinking about me the way I would like you to think about me, I monitor and possibly modify my behavior to keep you thinking about me the way I want you to think about me.
