Answer the following statement(s) true (T) or false (F)

1. Before beginning a caucus, the mediator should overview confidentiality as it applies to the caucus with both parties. When the caucus is completed, the mediator should revisit confidentiality before returning to joint session. 2. When a disputant continues to repeat an unreasonable position, utilizes intimidation or other coercive tactics the mediator should withdraw from the mediation. 3. It is unwise for the mediator to probe for hidden agendas during a caucus. Parties often feel that the mediator is being invasive, aggressive, or “picking on them.” 4. Disputants may confess to lies during caucus and then ask the mediator not to tell the other party. Most mediators feel that they should abide by such a request, because to do otherwise would be a violation of confidentiality.
