According to Dr. Taylor, communication is...
the process of sending and receiving information
theory
a statement about reality that seeks to explain or predict relationships
Lasswell's (1948) communication model
who --> what --> channel --> whom --> effect
Transmission model- Shannon & Weaver (1949(
sender --> message --> channel --> receiver --> effect + NOISE
noise
everything that can cause a disruption in the flow of communication
David Berlo's SMCR Model
sender --> message --> channel --> receiver.
sender encodes message, receiver decodes it
missing the feedback loop
Four types of noise
-Physical (external)
-Physiological (internal)
,-Psychological (internal)
-Semantic (internal)
Five Types of Context
-Psychological
-Relational (your relationship with who you're speaking to)
-Environmental (physical, environment, location, time of day, etc.)
-Situational (WHERE you are communicating)
-Cultural
polysemic
something that has multiple meanings
Theory of Encoding and Decoding
1. Production
-ideas encoded into a message
-formed based on sender's experiences, perceptions, and beliefs
2. Circulation
-messages made available to the receiver
3. Use
-consumption, decoding, and interpretation by receiver
-receiver constructs meaning
4. Reproduction
-the application/consequences/effects of message's use
3 Types of Decoding
, -Dominant: recipient decodes message in the way it was encoded (agreement)
-Negotiated: recipient decodes somewhat different meaning
-Oppositional: recipient decodes a meaning that is fundamentally different than the
sender
According to Rutger de Graaf, communication is...
an act of transmitting information
What is interpersonal communication?
the verbal and nonverbal interaction between at least two interdependent people; The
exchange of nonverbal and verbal messages between people, regardless of the
relationship they share.
What is the interpersonal communication continuum?
The range in which communication is impersonal (taxi driver and passenger) to high
personal (longtime lovers)
5 Characteristics about the Nature of Interpersonal Communication
-It occurs among interdependent individuals
-It's inherently relational
-It exists on a continuum
-It involves choices
-It's inevitable and irreversible
