A

Shannon and Weaver

21
Q

It suggests communication is the transfer of information between 4 basic steps or key elements.

A

Source
Message
Channel
Receiver

23

A

Encoding
Decoding
Interpreting

25
Q

A

Environment (X)
Sensory Experience (X1)
Source/ Sender (A)
The object of the orientation of the source (X2)

27
Q

What are the main elements of transactional communication models?

A

Encoding
Decoding
Communicators
The Message
The Channel
Noise

28
Q

Under the Barlund’s Transactional model, what are the three curs in impacting our message?

A

Public Cues (Environmental cues)
Private Cues (Personal thoughts and background)
Behavioral Cues (Person’s behavior; verbal and nonverbal)

29
Q

What are the elements of Dance’s Helical Communication Model?

A

Feedback
Response
Interpretation
Initiation

30
Q

What acts as the added (background) element that usually distracts from the original message?

A

Noise

31
Q

What are the underlying aids of Source and Receiver? (Berlo’s SMCR Model)

A

Communication Skills
Attitudes
Knowledge
Social System
Culture

32
Q

What are the key factors of the message?

A

Content
Elements
Treatment
Structure
Code

33
Q

Channel identifies our senses such as:

A

Hearing
Seeing
Touching
Smelling
Tasting

34
Q

These models are used in internet-based and mediated communication such as telephone conversations, letters, etc.

A

Interactive Models of Communication

35
Q

What represents a person’s culture, past experiences, and personal history.

A

Field of Experience

36
Q

It is a circular model of communication, in which messages go in two directions between encoding and decoding.

A

The Osgood-Schramm Communication Model

37
Q

What model is useful for describing synchronous, interpersonal communication, but less suitable for cases with little or no feedback?

A

The Osgood-Schramm Communication Model

38
Q

What are the 4 main principles of Osgood-Schramm Communication Model?

A

Communication is circular
Communication is equal and reciprocal
The message requires interpretation
3 steps process: Encoding, Decoding, Interpreting

39
Q

What model suggests that the communication process does not start with the source/sender, but rather with environmental factors?

A

The Westley and Maclean Communication Model

40
Q

It refers to the background, culture, and beliefs of the sender and the receiver of messages.

A

Object of orientation

41
Q

These models view communication as a cooperative process in which communicators co-create the process of communication, thereby influencing its outcome and effectiveness.

A

Transactional Models of Communication

42
Q

What communication model explores interpersonal, immediate-feedback communication?

A

Barlund’s Transactional Model

43
Q

What communication model explores interpersonal, immediate-feedback communication?

A

Barlund’s Transactional Model

44
Q

It is a circular process and multi-layered feedback system between the sender and the receiver.

A

Barlund’s Transactional Model

45
Q

According to this model, with every cycle of communication, we expand our circle. Therefore, each communication encounter is different from the previous one because communication never repeats itself.

A

Dance’s Helical Communication Model

46
Q

According to this communication model, the feedback we get from the other party involved influences our next statement and we become more knowledgable with every new cycle.

A

Dance’s Helical Model

47
Q

In his book Introduction to Communication Studies”, he defined noise as: “Anything that is added to the signal between its transmission and reception that is not intended by the source.”

A
