Which term refers to the practice of showing care or admiration?

• A. Eye contact
• B. Interpersonal skills
• C. Motivation
• D. Respect

Answer: (D)

Showing care or admiration is expressed through respect. Respect means recognizing the worth of others, treating them with consideration, and valuing their feelings and rights. When you show care or admiration, you’re communicating esteem and regard for the person, which is the essence of respect.

Eye contact signals attention and can be part of demonstrating care, but it’s just one behavior rather than the overall idea of showing care or admiration. Interpersonal skills cover a range of abilities used to interact with others, including listening and empathy, but they describe broad abilities rather than this specific notion. Motivation is about the drive to act, not how you treat others. So respect best captures the idea of showing care or admiration.
