Question 3

Semantic Ill-formedness

   brought this up today.”
2. MIND-READING : Acting as if we know what someone else
   is thinking or feeling. Eg: My husband loves me a lot -> How do you know that(gives you complex equivalence. the specific
   observable behavior that is used as a signal for the anchored
   response.) -> He tells me jokes that make me laugh
3. CAUSE-EFFECT:
   Cause-effects describe perceived processes in the
   person’s life: “He made me angry”
