Classify and explain communication according to the number of people involved in the communication process
Answer:
- Intrapersonal Communication:
This is a communication process in which we engage in but rarely realize we are involved in it. It is the communication that goes on within one self. It includes diverse internal activities such as thinking, problem solving, conflict resolution, planning, emotions, stress, evaluation and relationship development.
-Interpersonal Communication:
This involves exchanging meaning between at least two people in a situation that allows mutual opportunities for both speaking and listening. It occurs when we
communicate on a one to one basis, usually in an informal, unstructured setting.
-Public communication:
Involves one person communicating to a large number of people.
-Mass and Mediated Communication:
Mass communication generally means that someone is communicating with a large number of people e.g. radio, television, newspapers, books, magazines, internet, movies etc. There is very little interaction between the
sender and the receiver
