A General Theory/Model of Communication
Three Stages of Development
• Action Model
• Interaction Model
• Transactional Model
Action Model
Source Receiver
This is the simplest model of communication. It assumes that communication is a simple unidirectional event.
Interaction Model
Source/Receiver---Message---Channel---Receiver/Source
This model is more complicated and assumes that communication is like a ping pong game where the ping pong ball is the message.
Transactional Model
Self SelfMessage-Channel
The transactional model is the most complicated and the last stage of development for communication models. It emphasizes and ongoing, irreversible, non-repeatable process in which all the elements are constantly changing. The end result is that our notion of our self is continuously negotiated or transacted.
