Assertive behaviours are those when a person pursues personal or professional goals without infringing on the rights or goals of others

Question

BlackTom AI · Accepted Answer

The statement concerns what constitutes assertive behavior in interpersonal interactions. 
Option 1 (True): This option correctly defines assertiveness as pursuing personal or professional goals while respecting the rights and goals of others. It captures the core idea that assertive communication is direct and honest without being hostile or coercive, striking a balance between one's own needs and others' rights. 
Option 2 (False): If chosen, this would suggest that assertiveness involves infringing on others’ rights or behaving aggressively, which contradicts the very definition of assertiveness. Such an interpretation would align more with aggression or coercion, not with assertive conduct. 
To further distinguish, consider how assertive behavior would handle a boundary: you state your needs clearly, use respectful language, and stop short of imposing on others, whereas an infringing or aggressive approach would override the other person’s rights or impose demands. 
In summary, the true characterization is that assertive behavior affirms one’s own goals while simultaneously respecting others’ rights and boundaries, making the True option the correct interpretation and the False option inaccurate by describing an incompatible behavior pattern.
