Answer:
Passive communicators do not visibly react to anger-inducing situations
Aggressive communicators tend to react negatively in normal situations
Assertive communicators tend to express their views and thoughts in a open and non-threatening way
Explanation:
Passive communicators tend to not be too open about their ideas and avoid confrontation whenever possible, and this will often include not defending themselves in arguments, especially when dealing with an aggressive communicator. This is because they might feel like they are being attacked or judged based on their views and opinions.
Aggressive communicators tend to be rather closed minded when expressing their opinions and views, and when their views are challenged, they may be become defensive and close themselves off to any form of debate. They may also shout if their point is not being taken into account.
Assertive communicators are often the middle ground between passive and aggressive communicators, in the way that they are neither aggressive in their actions or their tone and are open to other people's views and opinions, however they will still defend their views with valid points.
