2 Fib or Fact: A Game of Feelings Stories INTRODUCTION Fib or Fact is a humorous and revealing card game used to build rapport and develop emotional competence. Fib or Fact helps counselors gain additional information about children s environments and relationships in a way that is playful and engaging. Children will Share feelings with counselors, thereby enhancing a sense of connection and rapport Improve emotional understanding and expression Self disclose information relevant to treatment Develop empathy in thinking about others Engage in creative expression GAME RATIONALE Fib or Fact: A game of Feelings Stories serves three purposes in counseling. In the early stages of counseling, it assists in establishing rapport and gathering assessment information; in later stages of counseling, it can be used as part of an intervention to improve emotional understanding and expression. Building rapport with clients is fundamental to the counseling relationship. Indeed, research shows that the therapeutic alliance predicts clients emotional and behavioral outcomes (e.g. Kazdin, et. al., 2006; Miller & Rollnick, 2002). One study showed that two-thirds of the variance in clients outcome behaviors could be predicted by the emotional connection between therapist and client (Frank & Frank, 1991). Rapport is established through shared comfort, trust, and cooperation all of which are created in play. Fib or Fact provides these elements while adding zany and mischievous fun. Fib or Fact also helps children reveal information that they may not be comfortable revealing in traditional talk sessions. Fib or Fact facilitates communication, disclosure, and fantasy expression by inviting children to create scenarios about persons, places and feelings. In this way counselors can obtain both information from the content of the game and can make process observations about honesty, willingness to share, competitiveness and frustration tolerance. Finally, Fib or Fact helps children to recognize, understand and apply emotions to various people and situations the essence of emotional literacy/emotional intelligence/emotional competence. If children learn to be aware of feelings, they can make reasoned decisions, control impulses and be assertive in their communication. Indeed, research has shown over and over again the tremendous benefits of knowing how to deal with emotions in a positive way (e.g. Gerits, et.al., 2005; Kam et al., 2003; Kusche, 2002).

OBJECT OF THE GAME The object of the game is to be the first person to earn fifteen (15) or more points by accurately guessing if other players stories are FIB or FACT. RULES Distribute one Fib card and one Fact card to each player. Then shuffle the Person, Feeling and Place cards separately in three (3) decks. Give each player three (3) cards from each of the three (3) decks. (Each player should have a total of eleven cards - three Person cards, three Feeling cards, three Place cards, one Fib card, and one Fact card.) Place the remaining Person, Feeling and Place cards in three (3) stacks in the playing area. The youngest player goes first and play continues counter clockwise. Play begins when the first player takes from her/his hand one card from each Person, Feeling and Place category (a total of three cards) and places them face-up in the middle of the playing area so that all players can see them. S/he reads the three cards in the order of Person, Feeling and Place and then completes the sentence by describing a story. (For example, if s/he sets down the mother Person card, the felt happy Feeling card and the in the kitchen Place card, s/he might state, My mother felt happy in the kitchen when everyone told her that her dinner was delicious. ) The player then places either her/his Fib card or her/his Fact card face-down in the playing area (depending on whether the statement is a fib or a fact). The other players then try to decide if the story is a fib or a fact by placing either their Fib card or their Fact card face down in the playing area. After all players have placed their Fib of Fact cards face down in the playing area, players turn over their cards to see if they match the story teller s card. Any players who have guessed correctly receive two points and the story teller receives one point. NOTE: If no one guesses correctly, no one receives points, including the story teller. The player then discards the Person card, Feeling card, and Place card that were played and draws new cards. Play continues with the next player. The game ends when one of players reaches fifteen (15) points. REFERENCES Frank, J.D. & Frank, J.B. (1991). Persuasion and healing: A comparative study of psychotherapy (3 rd ed.).
