Study Notes
Introduction to Communication Models
- Various authors and researchers present their own communication models emphasizing different components.
Aristotelian Model
- Originated by Aristotle around 5 BC, focusing on Speaker, Message, and Setting.
- The Setting is crucial as it determines the nature of the message.
- Three key settings in Aristotle’s time:
- Legal Setting: Involves courts where individuals defend themselves.
- Deliberative Setting: Pertains to political assemblies, especially the Roman Senate.
- Ceremonial Setting: Encompasses speeches for celebrations, tributes, and eulogies during significant events.
Shannon-Weaver Model
- Developed by Claude Shannon and Warren Weaver in 1948, known as the Telephone Model.
- Introduces the concept of "noise," affecting message transmission from Speaker to Listener.
- Highlights that the Message sent may differ from the Message received due to external disruptions.
Schramm Model of Communication
- Created by Wilbur Schramm, recognized as the Father of Mass Communication.
- Key concept: Communication occurs when there is an overlap between the Speaker's and Listener's fields of experience.
- Field of Experience: Encompasses a person’s unique knowledge, experiences, and backgrounds that influence understanding.
- Example: A lecture in known languages (e.g., English, Filipino) can be understood if the audience is familiar; however, using an unknown language (e.g., Chinese) would lead to miscommunication.
Eugene White’s Model
- Proposed in 1960, suggests that communication is a circular and continuous process without a defined beginning or end.
- Key components include:
- Thinking: Initial thought creation.
- Symbolizing: Translating thoughts into symbols.
- Expressing: Sharing symbols with others.
- Transmitting: Sending the message.
- Receiving: Listener’s receipt of the message.
- Decoding: Understanding the symbols received.
- Feedback: The Listener's response, crucial for effective communication.
- Emphasizes continuous monitoring by the Speaker to gauge Listener responses.
Models of Communication
- Graphical representation aids in understanding communication, with various models highlighting different components.
Aristotelian Model
- Developed by Aristotle in 5BC, focusing on the importance of the Speaker and the Message.
- The Setting plays a crucial role in shaping the message, influencing how it is received.
Three Settings
- Legal Setting: Pertains to courts where ordinary citizens present their cases.
- Deliberative Setting: Relates to political assemblies, including the Roman Senate.
- Ceremonial Setting: Involves speeches during significant events like wartime victories or leadership transitions.
Shannon-Weaver Model
- Introduced by Claude Shannon and Warren Weaver in 1948, also known as the Telephone Model.
- Introduces the concept of "noise" that disrupts the communication process, affecting message clarity.
- Highlights that the Message from the Speaker may differ from the Message received by the Listener due to interference.
Schramm Model of Communication
- Developed by Wilbur Schramm, recognized as the Father of Mass Communication.
- Emphasizes that effective communication occurs only when there is an overlap in the Field of Experience between Speaker and Listener.
Field of Experience
- Represents a person's unique experiences, knowledge, and exposure.
- Mutual understanding arises when the Speaker and Listener share commonalities in their Fields of Experience.
Eugene White’s Model
- Proposed in 1960, depicting communication as circular and continuous, lacking a defined beginning or end.
- Communication can be analyzed from any point along the cycle which includes stages of Thinking, Symbolizing, Expressing, Monitoring, Transmitting, Receiving, Decoding, and Feedback.
Key Concept: Feedback
- Introduced by Eugene White, referring to the Speaker's perception of the Listener's response.
- Feedback occurs when the Speaker actively monitors the Listener, being attentive to their reactions.
