communication management explanation part 2

In this posting I would like to explain some questions about communication management

1.      Why is understanding communication is important to our daily life? Explain!

Answer : communication is the sending and receiving of a message. According to O’Sullivan et. al (1994),communication is a process of “negotiation and exchange of meaning in which messages, ‘people-in-culture’ and ‘reality’ interact as to enable meaning to be produced or understanding to occur” (p.50).  so as human being we can not live without communicating with other people because communication meets our physical needs, communication meet relational needs, communication fills identity needs, communication meets spiritual needs, an communication serves instrumental needs( Floyd,2011 ). To meet that all aspects, understanding communication is very important to avoid misunderstanding, misinterpretation about the messages of communication.

2.      What makes a communication as an interpersonal communication? Explain!

Answer: I want to explain first about what is interpersonal communication,  According to Floyd (2011)  interpersonal communication is communication that occurs between two people within the context of their relationship and that, as it evolves , helps to negotiate and define their relationship. To call a communication as interpersonal communication we have to see the characteristics of interpersonal communication, that are:

·         Interpersonal communication ocurs between two people

·         Interpersonal communication ocurs within a relationship

·         Interpersonal communication evolves within relationship

·         Interpersonal communication negotiates and defines relationships.

(Floyd, k.2011)

Based on those characteristics  above, communication can be called as interpersonal communication if it fits those characteristics. For example: father and daughter talking about their family. Their relationship is father and daughter.

3.      Is  talking to artificial intelligence ( such as Siri, Cortana, or Google assistant) part of interpersonal communication? If you think that is not an interpersonal communication, what kind of communication is it? Explain!

Answer: In my opinion, this is not kind of interpersonal communication, but this is kind of Extrapersonal communication. Extra Personal Communication is the way of communication in which a human interacts with other species. Types of extra personal communications: - Communication with animals; - Communication with plants; - Communication with machines/robots; . in this case, talking to AI is communication with machines or robots. Artificial intelligence (AI) is the intelligence of machines. It is about designing machines that can think. Voice assistants ,Today, we know systems of artificial intelligence (voice assistant), such as Siri, Google and Cortana. They operate on the basis of principle: person the first asks a question, and then the voice assistant answers(www.comprofessor.com).  Based on the explanation above, I can conclude that talking to AI is not interpersonal communication, because we do not communicate with human, so it calls Extrapersonal communication.

4.      Can we do an intrapersonal communication through social media? Explain!

Answer: in my opinion, Yes we can do intrapersonal commuication trough social media. For example in facebook, if  you write something about your  profile, you can setthe privasi of the account to hide that written from public.  So, only you can access this one. This kind of intrapersonal communication called  ( Solo written communication) because it deals with writing not intended for others.

5.      Is it possible to do interpersonal and intrapersonal communication at the same time? Explain and give an example of how to do it!

Answer: in my opinion, it can be done at the same time both Interpersonal and Intrapersonal communication. For example: I talk to my friend about the ways of the how to make a cake. This is called as Interpersonal communication, because it occurs within relationship, during telling the materials my friend says some statements that meke me doubt about true or not that statement, because I do not brave to interupt her speaking then I said to my self intrapersonally, “Is it Right? Actually no” this is called Intrapersonal communication, because I dont tell her I just say to my self.

6.      Is sign language part of verbal or non-verbal comunication? Explain!

Answer: Before deciding whether sign language verbal and non verbal, I want to explain first what sign language is. According to britanica. Com, sign language means of communication through  bodily movements, especially hands and arms used when spoken communication is impossible or not desirable. In sign language it include the words, phrases, and sentences that have the written structure. It usually used by deaf, this is not kind of body language, because body language only have specific function/ message, but sign language is used by deaf to communicate with other people , not only for specific purposes but it has a whole meaning of the movement. Because of this Sign language is part of verbal communication, in this case verbal does not mean with the voice, it means with words.

7.      Is it possible to combine the non-verbal with the Intrapersonal communication? Give an example!

Answer: In my opinion, it is possible to combine both Intrapersonal and Non-verbal communication, because as stated by Jhonson that communication experts suggest that between 65% and 93% of the meaning of message is conveyed through tone of voice and Non-verbal behaviours(2003)as cited in www.humankinetics,com . For example:

You have an invitation to go to party, so, before going to the party you prepare yourself such as wearing a beautiful dress, put the make up on your face and so on. Before going, you stand in front of the mirror, then you look at your self then you say”looks good”at the same time you also raise up your thumb for signaling everything OK. So that is the combination of Intrapersonal and Non-verbal communication.

8.      Think of 5 different kind of non-verbal cues that may be used by people to signal dishonest mssages to others!

        i.            Eye Contact

Liar avoid eye contact when they’re highly motivated not to be caught. Because eyes never lie. httpa://www.truthaboutdeception.com/lying-and-deception/detecting-deception/nonverbal-cues.html

      ii.            Voice

While speaking a liar will often alter their vocal tone. Their tone has a higher or lower pitch than usual, they have more hesitation in their speech.

    iii.            Repetition

Liars will often repeat the whole question back at start of their answer.

    iv.            Blinking

Lying can require more concentration than usual. The liars blinked more .(www. Paulekman.com/facial-expression/sign-of-lying/)

      v.            Escape

A liar will subconciously point their feet toward the exit, they will also create a physical barriers for interviewers... such as placing a water bottle on the desk between them.
