  7. Level 7: Multi-causal & Triangular Thinking • The capacity to reflect on multiple reasons for feelings, indirect influences, triadic interactions, and to compare feelings • Multi-causality = More than one factor, e.g.: • My friend doesn’t want to play because … • He hates me • He’s busy doing something else • He doesn’t want me to change the rules • He doesn’t want to always let me win • Triangular Thinking = More than one person, e.g.: • I like Ben, and I like Dave, but Ben doesn’t like Dave • If Dad won’t let me, maybe Mom will

  8. Level 8: Grey Area, Emotionally Differentiated Thinking • The capacity to reflect on various degrees and shades of different feelings • Feelings can have different levels of intensity • “I’m only a little bit anxious, but I’m a lot mad.” • Multiple causes can have varying importance • E.g. “Emotional Thermometers” • Different people can have different feelings • “I feel more important when I tease my brother, but he feels hurt.” • Negotiation and compromise • “You want a picnic, but we want to play frisbee golf. Let’s have a Frisbee Golf Tournament Picnic.”

  9. Level Nine: Sense of Self & Reflection on an Internal Standard • The capacity to reflect on current feelings and experiences, and compare them to a longer-term, internalized sense of oneself, one’s values, goals, and ideals • “It’s not like me to feel so angry.” • “I handled my frustration better than usual.” • “I love animals, so I want to stop eating meat.” • “It may be okay for someone else to do that, but it’s not okay for me.” • Allowing for two perspectives simultaneously  decreased concreteness, increased flexibility
