Interview Techniques/Social Work True or False Questions Explanation

Correct Answers 3 and 7

3: Making a concrete action plan is the first step in building a relationship of trust with the client.

False is the correct answer. A concrete action plan is important in encouraging the client to become independent and helping them solve their problems, but it cannot be said to be the "first step" in building a relationship of trust. In building a relationship of trust, attitudes such as empathy, listening, and acceptance are more important.

7: Attentive listening is understanding what the client is saying as it is and judging it based on non-verbal elements.

False is the correct answer. Attentive listening is an attitude of paying attention not only to the client's words but also to non-verbal expressions (facial expressions, tone of voice, etc.) and trying to deeply understand the other person's feelings. However, it is important to understand the other person's feelings comprehensively, including the words, rather than judging based on non-verbal elements alone.
