Modalities

Question 1

List the six (6) modalities of calibration

Answer 1

Skin color
Eyes
Breathing
Lower lip size
Skin tonus
posture

Question 2

What is a Sub Modality?

Answer 2

Each major representational system has a number of subsets called Sub Modalities, which is how we encode and give meaning to our Internal Representations. Sub Modalities are the fine tuning of Internal Representation.

Sub Modality Examples: Contrastive Analysis, Mapping Across, Swish Patterns

Question 3

Sub Modality- List six (6) Visual

Answer 3

Black & White or Color?
Near or Far?
Bright or Dim?
Focused or Defocused?
Movie or Still?
Location?
Size of Picture?
Angle Viewed From

Question 4

Sub Modality- List six (6) Auditory

Answer 4

Location
Direction
Internal or External?
Loud or Soft?
Fast or Slow?
High or Low Pitch?
Tonality
Timbre
Pauses
Cadence
Duration

Question 5

Sub Modality- List six (6) Kinesthetic

Answer 5

Location
Size
Shape
Intensity
Steady
Movement/Duration
Vibration
Pressure/Heat?
Weight

Question 6

What is the relationship of Strategies to Sub Modalities?

Answer 6

A strategy is a sequence of representations leading to a specific outcome.
The Sub Modalities are the fine structure of each of the representations used in the strategy.
Sub Modalities are at a more specific level than strategies

Question 7

What is Mapping Across and Contrastive Analysis?

Answer 7

Contrastive Analysis = Eliciting Sub Modalities at two different times or for two different events and looking for the difference in Sub Modalities

Mapping Across = Moving Sub Modalities from one experience to the Sub Modalities of another experience

Question 8

What are the two major elements in successful Sub Modality interventions?

Answer 8

[Elicitation of a universal experience to provide the energy (eg. Sun comes up)]
1. Elicitation of the Drivers - the critical sub Modalities (the difference that makes the difference)
2. Thresholds
