Given the context of Smoketown, the combination of political philosophy and information processing frames of reference would work best. Political philosophy is the strongest frame at providing an overall policy goal through its dialectic approach. However, it is the weakest of the five frames at providing technical details or a plan of action.

The major weakness of information processing, decision-making, is offset by the strength of political philosophy. These two frames, when combined, create the most comprehensive approach to the plethora…

It is a space in which the client can pour themselves out and unravel their thoughts; making sense of the current situations (Jacobs, 2010).

A reference frame is similar to a reference point, it is how “potential outcomes are coded as either gains or losses” (Schweitzer & DeChurch, 2001, pg 101), to a given party. It was decided to bring in someone new to the negotiation because she was able to reframe the situation for the negotiating parties. By framing the situation to say both parties had a fault and acknowledging to the other party that she understood and…

In his study questions were framed either of mortality or survival, as well as a scenario about pregnancy: either deciding against it or choosing to still go through with it if it involved certain risks. A significant difference between men and women was found in the pregnancy scenario, women were more likely to still favor a pregnancy as well as see it more positively than men did. McNeil et al. believed that showed how “people interpret mixed or ambiguous frames in a selective fashion that is…

problem is simply solved instead. A limited frame is what inhibits policy makers from truly being able to address the core issues of many problems today, thus causing uncertainty, ineffective policies, and offense to many.
