Which type of feedback focuses on process and outcomes, in contrast to feedback that provides criticism without guidance?

Circular feedback
Intuitive feedback
Constructive feedback
Destructive feedback

The correct answer is: Constructive feedback

Constructive feedback is characterized by its focus on both the process and outcomes of an individual's work or behavior. This type of feedback is aimed at providing specific guidance and suggestions for improvement, helping the recipient understand not only what went wrong but also how they can enhance their performance moving forward. It encourages learning and development, fostering a positive environment where individuals feel supported in their growth. In contrast, feedback that lacks constructive elements, such as criticism without guidance, can be unhelpful or even damaging. Destructive feedback often highlights issues without offering solutions, leaving individuals feeling discouraged and uncertain about how to improve. Circular and intuitive feedback styles do not specifically target the improvement of outcomes and processes in the same way that constructive feedback does, as they may lack the structured support and actionable advice necessary to facilitate development.
