The Basic Principles of Communication Alethea Lester COM200: Interpersonal Communication Christi Renzi October 23, 2017 The Basic Principles of Communication We will never know everything there is to know about relationships with others or ourselves because the communication process is complexed (Bevan & sole, 2014). Communication is the main key to being successful in any relationship, whether it is business or personal. Communication is the interaction between two or more people who share meaning through messages that is either verbal or non-verbal messages through contexts (Bevan, J.L, & Sole, K. (2014, section 1.4, para. 2). In order to become a competent communicator and avoid miscommunication, one has to acknowledge and …show more content…
The students are medically fragile and severely handicapped. However, there is one student that the assistant work with more and know more about. The student has seizures if he is over stimulated. The assistant knows how to not over stimulate him. The student loves to look at lights on the ceiling, however too much can set his seizures off. One day the teacher decides to work with the student. She is over stimulating with the lights. The assistant is trying to tell her what she was doing was too much for him. The teacher over talks assistant and responds before it is her turn to talk. The teacher do not listen to the assistant. However, she keeps doing what she is doing. Before you know it, the student is having back-to-back seizures and 911 has to be call because the seizure will not stop. This leads to miscommunication because the teacher is not listening and disrespecting what the assistant is trying to communicate to her about the student. The results of the teacher not listening to the assistant while explaining how too much lights can over stimulate the student could make the situation uncomfortable and cause complication with student and the assistant. One challenge or barrier that is caused by miscommunication is misperceptions. Misperception is the broadest challenge of interpersonal communication (Bevan, J.L., & Sole, K. (2014, section 1.3, para. 12). Since the teacher was not
The Purpose of this paper is to explain how communication between doctor and patient, nurses and patient and nurse to doctor is imperative to the patient care and outcome. To define, and discuss the seven principles of patient-clinician communication, and how, I apply three of them in my everyday clinical settings. In Addition, I will be discussing three methods of communication which can improve communication outcomes regarding patients and clinicians, along with given personal examples. Last of all, we will define and give an example of four ethical principles are applied in the patient-clinician along with explaining the importance of ethical communication and safety when it comes to my patients.
Humans act toward people, things, and events on the basis of the meanings they assign to them. Once people define a situation as real, it has very real consequences. Without language there would be no thought, no sense of self, and no socializing presence of society within the individual. (Socio-cultural tradition)
Although many books have been written about communication and connection in relationships, there has been a book that addresses precisely this wonderful process as has James C. Petersen in his book: Why Don’t We Listen Better? And it is precisely the way in which the parts he divided the book that takes the reader to a better understanding of what the personal relationships connections through communications are concerned.
In 1980, S.F. Scudder proposed that all living beings existing on the planet communicate in some way, even plants. We need to communicate to survive. My paper discusses various communication theories that relate to things that I observed or experienced over the course of my internship.
Interpersonal skills are what we use every day to communicate and interact with people. Those who have strong interpersonal skills are usually the ones who are the more successful in their professional life and also their social life as they will be easy to understand and will draw people to them through their body language or by their way of speech. Employers look for people with good interpersonal skills because it will mean they will be able to work with others and be able to communicate with customers or clients.
Interpersonal communication is key to the life of a healthy relationship or marriage. Without communicating relationships and marriage will end failing. One of the biggest challenges with interpersonal communication lies in our ability to share our thoughts and concerns, conducted by feelings, desires, goals and needs, with another person
I. Interpersonal communication can be defined a number of ways, but it is usually described as communication between or among connected persons or those in a close relationship.

What was the course material that suggests that this particular communication behavior was an appropriate target for change? Be specific; apply material from the text, lecture, TCOs, and so forth.
Communication is a very important part of our relationships. We use it order to have both our physical and instrumental needs met. Having the means by which to communicate gives us the opportunity to form and maintain meaningful relationships in our lives. By effectively communicating with others, we're able to understand their opinions of us. And we're also given the opportunity of sharing and expressing our own thoughts, ideas, and values to them as well. This course has given me a greater understanding of effective communication as it relates to all types of relationships and problems. However, there are some relationship problems that communication just cannot fix. For example, in some relationships people “fall out of love” with each other.
Relationships involve effective communication to keep going. Otherwise, the relationship slowly dies or is forgotten. Although, not just any sort of communication keeps a relationship from fading. It must be effectively done. Different components go into effective communication. First, the conversations must be initiated somehow through a channel or method of communicating. Next, the conversations should be transactional or each person is communicating with one another through speaking and listening to one another. Lastly, each party should be aware of the three different contexts that go into the conversation; relational, situational, and cultural. Avoiding so could lead to conflicts. Both parties must want to and try to actively communicate and understand each other in order to have a lasting and healthy relationship with one another.
“Communication is the solvent of all problems, therefore communication skills are the foundation for personal development.” No relationship is able to flourish without communication. Communication is a vital component in strengthening the bond between two people by sharing interests, concerns and understanding one another. “People communicate in order to get information and reduce uncertainty during initial encounters with others” (Guerrero, Anderson, Afifi, 2014) Relationships not only require verbal communication but non-verbal as well.

Human communication can be described with five different key arguments which can be in relation to this statement: “Human thought is not neutral, but everything we think and communicate is constructed from a particular point of view, whether we realize it or not.”(Steinberg and Angelopulo, 2007). These five key arguments each have their own influences on how humans communicate with each other in different ways.
It takes two individual to build a successful relationship. Relationships or marriage would be a success if the communications towards each other were strong. A strong and loving relationship is a source of great happiness in life. Unfortunately, a relationship that lacks communication can be a source of unhappiness. In addition, being in a relationship takes commitment, compromising and communication skills. Each individual has to share to each other their feelings and thoughts to know each other’s wants, and needs. Without shared understanding and lack of communication, the
Within nursing, there is a very delicate balance between a nurse and her patient that must be maintained if the patient is to receive the care that he or she is entitled to receive. The patient must feel comfortable trusting his nurse to hear his needs and respond to them appropriately and in order for this to be the case, the nurse must first provide therapeutic communication effective enough to elicit such a response in her patient. There are both verbal and non-verbal components within the nurse-patient relationship. These components greatly influence how a nurse and patient will relate to each other and, ultimately, greatly influence the care that the patient receives.
