The Satier communication type is a family therapy that divides the way people talk when they're stressed into five categories: concurrent, condescending, hyperplastic, distracting, and healthy congruent. The first four types are you, your opponent, and the way you try to protect yourself while ignoring something in the situation, and the unity is the way you respect all three.

It's a concept that can help you understand why a fight ends when you just talk to your family and help you find a better way to talk, so we've put together a list of characteristics and exercises for each type.

Why is family communication important?

Families are places where people learn to talk for the first time, so the way they speak in the family often leads to relationships with friends and colleagues. Today, family is more about providing emotional support than it is about working and producing together, so the quality of our conversations is the quality of our family relationships. Several perspectives on family conversations can be found in the Family Communication Theory wiki article.

So changing the way we talk isn't just about fixing a few words, it's a starting point for changing the whole family's attitude toward each other.

How are the four types of dysfunction different?

Hoe-type is a way of ignoring one's own mind, grimacing, and saying, 'It's all my fault.' Blaming is a way of ignoring the other person and blaming them for 'it's because of you,' and hyperplasty is a way of ignoring both one's feelings and putting rules and logic first. A distraction is a way of ignoring yourself, your partner, and the situation and avoiding uncomfortable moments by turning the subject around or saying something outrageous. It's a good idea to understand these types not as personalities, but as habits of defending oneself in stressful situations.

Recalling a recent altercation of what I usually use makes it much clearer what to change in the next interaction.

How do we have a consistent conversation?

Unity is a conversation in which you acknowledge your feelings, your thoughts, your opponent's position, and your current situation, while conveying a message with the same words, expressions, and gestures. As a way of practicing, instead of 'Why are you always' blaming the other person, 'I was upset by ~, ~ I wish I could do it,' the me-transmission method that speaks of my feelings and desires is typical. It's also important to choose positive words over negative ones, and make sure your words and gestures don't go against you, like smiling when you're angry. Even if it's awkward at first, if you repeat a short sentence, you'll get used to it.

How would you organize your assignments and presentations?

If you are preparing for the presentation, try putting in a short role play for each type. If you postpone the same situation in turn, such as concurrent, condescending, hyperplastic, distracting, or unified, the listener can immediately feel the difference. After the role play, you can ask your audience which conversation they felt most comfortable with, and they'll be more engaged.

When describing a type, the difference is clearly evident in the same situation, for example, when you paraphrase what a parent says to a child who arrives home late. You may want to include an activity in your action plan to write a few times over the course of a week that captures how the person reacted to your use of the bi-delivery technique. The whole of Satier empirical family therapy can be seen in the Satier empirical family therapy wiki article. The Campus Down Satier Family Communication Organization Resource, which explains why family communication is the first school of human relations, and summarizes the types of conversations in stressful situations and practices such as b-transmission, positive language, and speech-gesture matching on page 3, is a good place to refer to without hesitation in preparing for family relationship assignments or presentations. Please write a generalized version of your real family story with consent.
