Interpersonal communication: the ongoing ever-changing process that occurs when one person interacts with another forming a dyad; communication occurring within a relationship: dyad: two individuals interacting; a two-person relationship. 2: negative feedback: responses that stop behavior in progress. 3: linear or unidirectional model: a representation of communication that depicts it as going in only one direction, ex: souce: encodes message channel message noise receiver: decodes the message. Packaged presentations that do not allow for modifications. Class presentations where content is adjusted based on feedback. Still discounts receiver"s active role in creating meaning.
