- W1473995489 abstract "This case study explored causes and means of managing anxiety and uncertainty by analyzing one student’s service learning experience at a German American school in a city in the Pacific Northwest through the lens of Anxiety/Uncertainty Management Theory (AUM). This case study explains the theory and applies it to this student’s experiences and observations in this new (to her) cultural setting. AUM is a theory that is meant to be used for explanatory purposes but also serves the purpose of actual application to situations in order to increase effective communication and cultural adaptation. Ultimately, the reader will gain knowledge of the theory, its applicable uses, and how a sojourner into the culture of a German American school used its knowledge to gain more insight from that experience. SPRECHEN SIE...WHAT?: ANXIETY UNCERTAINTY MANAGEMENT IN A GERMAN AMERICAN SCHOOL 3 Sprechen sie...What? Anxiety/Uncertainty Management in a German American School Everyone has experienced that feeling before; the feeling at the top of a rollercoaster when one’s car slowly chugs up the steep incline of what is surely the hugest drop of one’s life. What had been excitement and joy a second ago transforms into panic and fear. Adrenaline, which had been pumping in a positive way, now is quickening pulses and making hearts pound like sledge hammers even as people at some level know that they are safe. After all, the operator secured and checked fastenings and crowds of people have gotten-safely off the ride with smiles on their windblown faces. Nevertheless, at that moment, at the brink of the giant drop, it is impossible to banish from the mind that one did, in fact, voluntarily participate in one’s own demise; bodies are panicking and assuring their brains that one indeed is on the precipice of death. This feeling of utter, illogical panic in the face of the unknown is something almost every human being has experienced at some point or another. That idea of the unknown or strangers frightens most in the extreme in many situations, especially when faced with an unfamiliar culture or intercultural interaction. When entering a new culture or interacting with someone from a different culture, typically, before the interaction takes place one is fairly excited about this new opportunity. However, upon realizing that one has no idea what is actually going to happen, those dreaded feelings of apprehension and uncertainty start to grow overwhelming. But the question is...why? What are the causes of these feelings that can grab a hold suddenly, rendering one practically useless? Through a case SPRECHEN SIE...WHAT?: ANXIETY UNCERTAINTY MANAGEMENT IN A GERMAN AMERICAN SCHOOL 4 study of my experience at the German American School of Portland, it will soon become apparent how and why these overwhelming feelings of anxiety and uncertainty strike." @default.
