NLP Glossary: Calibration - Cross-over Mirroring




Calibration

The process of reading or tuning in to another person.


Capability

The ability to perform a specific behavior successfully.


Chunking

Viewing an event by moving up or down levels. Moving up leads to a more abstract view, moving down to a more concrete view.


Complex Equivalence

A statement where someone links together two events as if they are related (usually cause and effect). i.e. He forgot my birthday. He doesn't love me.


Congruence

The opposite of Incongruence. Congruence occurs when a persons behaviors, beliefs, strategies and values are in alignment.



Conscious

Awareness of the current moment.


Content

The details of an event, such as the what and where.


Content Reframing

Changing the meaning of an event. Often performed with the question - what else could this mean?


Context

Defines the framework within which a particular event occurs.



Conversational Postulate

A question that is interpreted as a command. For instance 'Can you close the door' doesn't usually get the response 'yes', it provokes the action of closing the door. This is an element of hypnotic language from the Milton Model.


Criteria

The values a person uses to make a decision, or what is most important to them.


Critical Submodality

The submodality that has the strongest effect when changed. i.e. During a visual swish, it may be noticed that changing the brightness has the strongest effect on the feelings associated with the memory.


Cross-Over Mirroring

Matching another's behavior indirectly. For instance, rather than matching their breathing, you could move your hand in time with their breathing.
