Applied Psychology
Easy
__________ is a communication model that can be used to increase self awareness.
Appeared in: AIIMS Raipur lecturer 2021
Explanation
- The Johari window is a specific psychological model designed to improve self-awareness and mutual understanding between individuals.
- It operates by categorizing personal awareness into four distinct quadrants: Open, Blind, Hidden, and Unknown.
- The primary mechanism for increasing self-awareness through this model is by expanding the 'Open' area.
- This expansion is achieved through two key processes: seeking feedback from others to reduce the 'Blind Spot' and practicing self-disclosure to reduce the 'Hidden Area'.
Why Other Options Were Wrong
- Option A: Downward communication describes the direction of information flow within a hierarchy (from top to bottom).
- Option C: A social relationship is a general term for interpersonal connections and is not a structured communication model.
- Option D: Upward communication describes the flow of information from subordinates to superiors within an organization.

Clinical Relevance
- Nursing practice connection: This is primarily an exam-oriented knowledge point with limited direct bedside application, so retain Communication Models and Self-Awareness as background academic context rather than a clinical decision trigger.
- Nurses can use the principles of the Johari Window to enhance therapeutic communication with patients by being aware of their own blind spots and appropriately disclosing information to build trust.
- Understanding this model can improve interprofessional collaboration. By seeking feedback, a nurse can work more effectively within the healthcare team, reducing misunderstandings and improving patient outcomes.
- A nurse manager can use this model in team-building exercises to foster a culture of open communication and mutual respect, leading to higher staff morale and better performance.
How to Approach the Question
- First, analyze the question to identify the key concepts: it asks for a 'communication model' specifically used to 'increase self-awareness'.
- Next, evaluate each option against these two criteria.
- Recognize that 'Downward communication' and 'Upward communication' are terms describing the direction of information flow in an organizational hierarchy, not personal development tools.
- Identify 'Social relationship' as a general concept rather than a specific, structured model.
- Recall or deduce that the 'Johari window' is a named psychological model. Its unique name suggests it is a specific theory or tool.
- Conclude that the Johari window is the only option that fits the description of a formal model designed for enhancing self-awareness.
