Explain the Model of Criticism
What will be an ideal response?
All criticism contains three parts: judgments, reasons, and norms. JUDGMENTS are
statements of approval or disapproval; likes or dislikes. In public speaking, we are constantly making
judgments regarding the speaker and things we liked or disliked about their speech. REASONS are
justifications offered for judgments, offering the speaker a rationale for why they feel the way they do as
a listener. Finally, NORMS are standards of relative worth or goodness. Hearing a listener's reasons for
why they feel a certain way towards something or someone helps to establish that listeners norms of
things that they value and believe is either good, right, or desirable.
