Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Research has shown that females tend to engage in rapport-talk, which is more about building and maintaining relationships, while males tend to engage in report-talk, which is more focused on exchanging information. This difference in communication style can sometimes lead to misunderstandings or difficulties in communication between males and females. However, it is important to note that these differences are not absolute and can vary based on individual personalities and contexts. The other answer choices, which suggest that males or females are overly emotional or dominant, are inaccurate and unsupported stereotypes.
