F28 Assigning,accepting and denying blame 失敗や事故が起こったときに、自分の非を認めるか否定するか、人のせいにするかについての3パターンの対応。
Taking the blame/非を認める ・I'm totally wrong.I shouldn't have let your dog out of the house. ・I'm really sorry I broke your glasses.I'll get you a new pair.
Denying blame/非を認めない ・I's not my fault.How was I supposed to know your dog was going to run away? ・I'm not to blame.You shouldn't have put your glasses on the sofa in the first place.
Assigning blame/一部非を認めるがほかのもののせいにする ・I'm holding Brad responsible for losing the contract. ・Well I guess he could have been better prepared,but Tom did forget some materials.
