Stephanie felt uncomfortable when she gave her first speech in class. she was the only african american in her class; all the other students were white. she had been raised in a neighborhood in st. louis that was predominantly african american, and she was accustomed to frequent audience responses that meant involvement with and support of the speaker. when her classmates sat there passively without saying a word and making very few facial expressions, she felt they were bored, perhaps even hostile. before her second speech, she continually told herself, "they don't mean to be rude or disinterested; they just have different cultural rules for appropriate behavior during a speech." this her feel more confident during her speech. stephanie was using which method of adapting to the audience?
