Which side is referred to as the support side in RCDT?

In the context of the RCDT (Reciprocal Communication and Decision-Making Training), the term "support side" refers specifically to the non-dominant side. This term is used to identify the side of the individual that is typically less adept in skills, actions, or communication styles as compared to the dominant side.

Understanding that the non-dominant side is viewed as the support side emphasizes the importance of balanced communication and the development of skills across both sides. This approach fosters an inclusive environment where individuals are encouraged to utilize both their strengths and areas for growth, thereby enhancing their overall effectiveness in communication and decision-making.

The other terms, such as dominant side and weak side, do not capture this concept accurately. The dominant side is where most of an individual’s skills and competencies lie, while the weak side implies a lack of proficiency without the supportive framework that the term "support side" implies. The active side generally refers to the side doing the communication or decision-making, which does not align with the idea of support in the context of RCDT.
