    Study Notes

    Communication Models

    • Communication models help illustrate the communication process.
    • Linear models focus on one-way communication.
    • Transactional models portray two-way communication.
    • Interactional models resemble transactional models but are used for wider communication platforms.

    Aristotle’s Model of Communication

    • Focuses on public speaking that aims to persuade.
    • Elements include the Speaker, Speech, Occasion, Audience, and Effect.
    • Example: A President ordering the Coast Guard to capture poachers.

    Berlo’s Model of Communication

    • Focuses on the characteristics of the communicators (source and receiver) and the influence of their attitudes, skills, and knowledge.
    • Includes the social system and culture (sociocultural system).
    • Considers the message's content and the communicator’s treatment and coding of the content.
    • Utilizes the five senses as communication channels: seeing, hearing, touching, smelling, and tasting.

    Lasswell’s Model of Communication

    • Proposed by Harold Lasswell (1948) as a linear communication model with five questions:
      • Who? (control analysis) - What? (content analysis) - In which channel? (media analysis) - To whom? (audience analysis) - With what effect? (effect analysis)
    • Emphasizes the function of communication in society.
    • Functions of communication include environment surveillance, correlation of components of society, and cultural transmission between generations.
    • Believed communication is crucial for national stability and must be controlled to minimize interfering forces.
    • Example: A family transmitting values through rituals like family dinners, impacting the next generation.

    Shannon-Weaver’s Model of Communication

    • Developed by Claude Shannon and Warren Weaver (1949) for telecommunication.
    • Elements include the information source, transmitter, receiver, destination, and noise.
    • Noise is anything that interferes with the intended meaning of communication.
    • Types of noise include physical, psychological, physiological, and semantic.

    Schramm’s Model of Communication

    • Created by Wilbur Schramm, highlighting the shared field of experience between communicators, essential for effective communication.
    • Introduces the dual roles of communicators as both senders and receivers, actively decoding and interpreting messages.
    • Depicts a circular sequential process of communication, with feedback and interaction between communicators.
