From [ Marc Abrams (990502.0756) ] > [From Fred Nickols (990502.0625 EDT)]-- > > Coercion is in the eye of the coercee, not the coercer. Certainly one way of looking at it. But I disagree. Coercion is usually only a _part_ of a number of behaviors that are going on at the same time. We experience multiple perceptions, multiple reference levels, and hence multiple behaviors. We are never "doing" only _one_ thing. This goes for coercion as well. Coercion is done without regard to the coercee. But coercion is not the only thing that is going on between the coercer and coercee,. Counter control; mighty very well be taking place simultaneously. This is pretty complex and not at all easy to represent in a model. Marc
