One barrier to conflict resolution is language. "Language and linguistic ability may act as a barrier to communication."(Page 11). Be sure to use slang and terminology that the other person can understand. Another barrier is a psychological barrier. "The psychological state of the communicators will influence how the message is sent, received and perceived."(Page 11). One must be aware of their emotions, and not let them affect what the person says.

He forgot about the money he owed me, and denied it ever happened. I got mad and yelled at him, which only made things worse. We eventually got my mom to mediate the conflict, and I was returned my $20. I could've handled this better by not letting my anger affect what I said. "Anger is another example of a psychological barrier to communication, when we are angry it is easy to say things that we may later regret and also to misinterpret what others are saying."(Page 11). I didn't think to control my emotions, which made the conflict worse.
