Soon the girl is giggling and answering the nurse’s questions. What type of communication barrier did the nurse overcome?

Answer

stereotype
B
emotional
C
physical

language

Explanation

The girl’s fear made her unwilling to communicate, so her emotions were the barrier. By asking about her favorite toy, the nurse helped her feel more comfortable, and she began answering questions. This is an emotional barrier, not a language or physical barrier.
