• The Role of “Active Listening” in Informal Helping Conversations: Impact on Perceptions of Listener Helpfulness, Sensitivity, and Supportiveness and Discloser Emotional Improvement (2015, background): “First, the relationship between message evaluations and message outcomes has been established, suggesting that when people evaluate supportive behaviors positively there is a concomitant positive change in affect (Bodie, Burleson, et al., 2012; High & Dillard, 2012).”
• Individual/relational resilience (2018, background): “For instance, a significant amount of research has shown that highly person-centered messages that are comforting, validate a person’s feelings, and elaborate on emotions tend to be associated with better personal and relational health (see High & Dillard, 2012).”
