Study Notes
Nature of Communication
- Communication is a continuous process that occurs between individuals.
- It can be expressed through verbal and written language as well as nonverbal actions.
- The effectiveness of communication is influenced by various factors including barriers and context.
Elements of Communication
- Speaker: The originator of information who conveys a message.
- Message: The content, ideas, or thoughts communicated by the speaker.
- Channel: The medium used to transmit the message, such as spoken, written, or nonverbal cues.
- Decoding: The interpretation of the message by the receiver.
- Receiver: The individual who receives and decodes the message.
- Feedback: The response from the receiver indicating their understanding or feelings about the message.
- Barrier: Any factor that hinders clear communication.
- Context: The situational and environmental factors surrounding the communication.
Process of Communication
- Involves idea generation, encoding the idea, message transmission, reception, decoding, and feedback.
- Example:
- Daphne expresses affection for Rico, converting her feelings into the native language.
- Rico interprets Daphne's message based on their relationship dynamics.
Models of Communication
- Models represent communication processes systematically, simplifying complex interactions and maintaining component organization.
- May perpetuate stereotypes but can also overlook significant aspects of human interaction.
Aristotle's Model of Communication
- Focuses on four key components: Speaker, Speech, Audience, and Occasion.
- Emphasizes the speaker's role in effectively sending a message to influence the audience.
Berlo's SMCR Model of Communication
- Source: The person encoding the message.
- Message: Content communicated.
- Channel: The means through which the message is conveyed.
- Receiver: The person decoding the message.
- Considers communication skills, attitudes, knowledge, social systems, and culture in both encoding and decoding processes.
Shannon and Weaver Model of Communication
- Developed a linear model where a message is sent as a signal through a channel, facing potential noise and disturbances before reaching the receiver.
- Highlights the importance of a feedback loop for effective communication.
Osgood-Schramm Model of Communication
- Stresses that communication is a two-way process requiring feedback for completion and understanding.
- Feedback is essential for successful interaction between the sender and receiver.
Helical Model of Communication
- Represents communication as a continuous, evolving process, symbolized by a helix to illustrate ongoing development and refinement in communication over time.
