What or where is the passage?
<span>During a conflict one can
either accept responsibility or not (depending, or course, on whether the
conflict is resulting from a fault of one’s own). If responsibility is accepted, the
communication that ensues is honest and can be constructive resulting in an
understanding that can generally be achieved when both sides are fully
listening to each other and trying to understand the opposite perspective. If responsibility is denied, what usually
happens is that “walls” go up and little listening takes place and, because instead
of listening one is generally trying to decide what to say next in order to
defend himself or herself, an understanding (with regard to effective
communicating) cannot be achieved. </span>
