Description

Jump In

Group member offers a probe, and the facilitator provides a Facilitator-Focused response before participants can provide a substantive response

Withholding

Someone else offers a probe and then another person provides a substantive response before the facilitator provides a response

Other

Any situation that does not fit into the previous categories. E.g., someone asks a direct question to the facilitator and the facilitator immediately responds; facilitator responds right away, but with an “other” response
