This document defines self-knowledge and empathy. Self-knowledge is understanding one's own thoughts and feelings, while empathy is understanding another's perspectives and sharing their emotions. Developing both requires self-reflection on one's values, beliefs, and goals. Empathy involves communication, caring, understanding, and relating to others, while building self-knowledge. Historical figures like Socrates and Plato emphasized the importance of self-knowledge. Cooperative learning and peer tutoring can help develop empathy and self-knowledge in students.

CHAPTER 2Section 2.1 Purposes of Interpersonal Communication
Chapter 2 provides an overview of the purposes and elements of interper-
sonal communication. It also examines the evolution of theories and mod-
els and how interpersonal communication is viewed today. Chapter 2 also
discusses the interpersonal skills that are crucial to master to be a competent
communicator.
We humans seem to be “hard wired” for communication, to be programmed from birth
for symbolic communication with other people. At a basic level, interpersonal commu-
nication is the interaction between people; however, the interaction is far more complex
than it might first seem. Interpersonal communication is a process composed of multiple
elements, and skill and practice are required to be an effective communicator. This chapter
begins the study of interpersonal communication by examining its purposes and elements
and the communication process itself. What are the purposes for which we communicate
with other people?
2.1 Purposes of Interpersonal Communication
As social animals, we want and need connections with other people. Interpersonal communication is a social process, and we usually communicate for one of three primary purposes: (1) to meet personal needs; (2) to learn about ourselves, other
people, and the world; and (3) to build and maintain relationships with others.
Meeting Personal Needs
One of the most basics reasons people interact with others is to satisfy personal needs. In
1943, psychologist Abraham Maslow developed a theory of human motivation that he
expanded upon in his 1954 book Motivation and Personality and his 1962 book Toward a
Psychology of Being. He believed that all humans have an essential nature and a set of basic
human needs that are good or, at the very least,
neutral and not evil. Maslow said that these
needs motivate us to seek psychological health
and full humanness, or self-actualization
(Maslow, 1968).
According to Maslow, healthy, self-actualizing
people are good, strong, and successful and can
act unselfishly. They are winners rather than
losers. They give to others as well as to society,
and they construct rather than destroy things
(Maslow, 1968). If self-actualization guides
your life, believed Maslow, you will have a
sense of achievement, healthy self-esteem, and
self-confidence, and grow into a healthy, pro-
ductive, and happy adult.

Maslow believed that self-actualizing
people are more likely to be productive and
happy.

CHAPTER 2Section 2.1 Purposes of Interpersonal Communication
People have basic needs.
Relationships are dynamic, alive and responsive to the choices, attitudes and behaviors we bring to them. Research shows that we really are living in organic networks in which we are constantly impacting others and the social environment as the social world impacts us. The competencies associated with Emotional Intelligence directly and powerfully transform interactions and ongoing relationships with others. These skills can be learned and every day is a new opportunity to practice them.

What is it that moves a person to give up their time, money, and even safety to relieve another person's suffering?
Compassion is the key.
Human suffering is inevitable, but our ability to understand and sympathize with the plight and circumstances of other people can play a major role in whether we take action to relieve this suffering.
Compassion is also a highly valued quality.
Religions stress the importance of compassion, while people often list characteristics such as "kind" and "compassionate" as what they look for in a potential partner.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.

He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

Self knowledge and empathy
1. SELF KNOWLEDGE AND EMPATHY
A Character Value Lens
Tahoma Lewis and Sarah Monda
2. DEFINITIONS
Self-knowledge:
Self-Knowledge, also called self-awareness, is defined as the ability to understand one’s own
thoughts and feelings (Merriam-Webster). It forms the basis for what we know as empathy.
Without understanding our own feelings and thoughts, we can’t understand or experience the
feelings and thoughts of others.
Psychologists Crisp and Turner define self-awareness as, “a psychological state in which people
are aware of their traits, feelings and behaviour. Alternately, it can be defined as the realization of
oneself as an individual entity” (Crisp & Turner, 2010).
Empathy:
Merriam-Webster defines empathy as “the feeling that you understand and share another
person’s experiences and emotion's” (Merriam-Webster). According to Psychology Today,
empathy is defined as having the following attributes: “the experience of understanding another
persons condition form their perspective…known to increase pro-social behaviors”.
Empathy is the capacity to “feel with rather than feel for” (Sideris, 2010, p. 457) someone in
regard to their emotions or experiences.
There are two types of empathy. Cognitive empathy is the ability to understand another
person’s perspective. The ability to understand their thoughts in a rational manner. This has
been called “mental perspective taking” (Smith, 2006, p.3). Affective/Emotional empathy is the
emotional response one has to the affective state of other people. It is "an emotional response
that stems from another's emotional state or condition and that is congruent with the other's
emotional state or situation" (Smith, 2006, p. 3). Basically it is the ability to respond emotionally
to another person’s situation or emotions.
4. CLASSROOM
Cooperative learning: A
system in which children are
grouped into diverse teams
and learn to rely upon one
another for academic
success creates the
opportunity for students to
relate to more kinds of
people (Cotton, 1992, p. 9).
Peer tutoring: helps to
increase understanding and
empathetic feelings between
students. It also builds the
self-confidence of the tutor
and helps both the tutor and
tutee to understand the
“intrinsic benefits of help
giving” (Cotton, 1992, p. 9).

“Knowledge can be acquired by a suitable and complete study, no matter what the starting point is. Only
one must know how to 'learn.' What is nearest to us is man; and you are the nearest of all men to
yourself. Begin with the study of yourself; remember the saying 'Know thyself.”
-G.I.Gurdjieff
7. KEY PROPONENTS IN SELF-AWARENESS AND EMPATHY
Key theorists behind empathy include
Edith Stein believed that existence and
therefore empathy was “a world not only of
physical bodies, but also of experiencing
subjects external to us, of whose
experiences we know” (Stein, 1917/1989, p.
5). She codified her theory of empathy in
1917.
Daniel Batson theorized empathy-altruism,
in which “feeling empathy for the person in
need evokes motivation to help in which
these benefits to self are not the ultimate
goal of helping; they are unintended
consequences.” (Batson & Shaw 1991,
p. 114)
Carl Rogers played a key role in the
understanding of empathy. “Thus it means
to sense the hurt or the pleasure of another
as he senses it and to perceive the cause
thereof as he perceives them, but without
ever losing the recognition that it is as if I
were hurt or pleased and so forth.” (Rogers,
1975, 2)
Key theorists behind self-awareness
include:
John Locke believed “the self is a knowable
entity, not just an illusion.” (Rochat, 2008,
244)
Rene Descartes, who coined “I think,
therefor I am” believes that self-awareness
can be ‘observed, captured and reflected
upon’ (Rochat, 2008, 244)
8. HISTORICAL TRACES OF SELF-KNOWLEDGE AND EMPATHY
Deriving from Greek roots, “self-knowledge is often considered the panacea for
wisdom, the light towards an honest and happy life, the universal recipe for truth
and redemption.” (Rochat, 2008, p.243)
“Plato recounts that for Socrates there was no more important philosophical
endeavor than the pursuit of self-knowledge, particularly its limits.” (Rochat,
2008, p. 243)
The play Oedipus King by Sophocles focuses on knowing one-self and our
relationship within society
