Communication Models

The document describes 4 communication models: 1. Aristotle's model which outlines a speaker, message, and listener. 2. Lasswell's model defines communication as "who says what through which channel to whom with what effect". 3. Shannon and Weaver's model conceptualizes communication as involving a source, transmitter, channel, receiver, and destination. It also includes noise as a dysfunctional factor. 4. Schramm's model views communication as requiring a source, message, and destination, with the source encoding a message and sending it to the destination via a channel for decoding.

4 COMMUNICATION MODELS

1. Aristotle’s Model

Aristotle, your well known Ancient greek thinker, unveiled an operation involving by oral
communication within his / her creating 3 hundred years prior to the birth involving Christ. The
task is regarded worthy inside analyze involving modern day communication. He articulates of
any communication practice consisting of a new loudspeaker, a message and also a listener. The
Aristotelian model of communication can be as follows:

Aristotle pointed out that the person at the end of communication process plays the key role to
whether or not communication takes place.

2. Lasswell’s Model

Harold Lasswell, a political scientist, designed a communication exchanges type mixing the main
elements of communication exchanges. His model has become widely discussed given that
1940s. He or she expressed the actual type because, “Who affirms exactly what, in which funnel,
to be able to which, in doing what effect. ” Which means, Lasswell’s style of verbal exchanges
consists of several parts- Sender (who), Message (what) in addition to receiver (whom). Lasswell
included solely the actual component-channel. The majority of modern-day theorists talk about
these several areas of the actual communication procedure by employing diverse terminology.
The particular Lasswell’s type can be found beneath:

3. Claude Shannon and also Warren Weaver Model


The United States applied mathematician Claude Shannon and also Industrial engineer Warren
Weaver produced a new mathematical theory regarding conversation within 1949 although
working at bell Mobile phone Laboratories in the United States. Afterward his / her style has
grown to be well-known because “information theory”. Shannon and also Weaver’s style is
commonly recognized because the course from which communication studies has exploded.

Shannon along with Weaver product contains the subsequent 5 things:

 A data source, which usually yields an email


 Some sort of transmitter, which encodes the particular communication into indicators
 Some sort of sales channel, to be able to which usually indicators usually are taken for a
sign
 Some sort of receiver, which ‘decodes’ (reconstructs) the particular communication from
the indication
 Some sort of desired destination, in which the communication occurs.

In the model, they indicated a sixth element, noise as a dysfunctional factor. The model is shown
below:

Advantages of Shannon and Weaver’s model: The strengths of Shannon and Weaver’s model
are:

 Simplicity
 Generality and
 Quantifiability

Such advantages made this model attractive to several academic disciplines.

4. Schramm’s Model

Wibur Scharmm, the well-known communication theorist, designed an easy devices


communication model in his book “The course of action in addition to Effects involving Mass
Communication. ” Within the product, Schramm found because Aristotle would, of which
communication usually requires about three elements-the resource, this communication plus the
desired destination. Ultimately, the original source encodes a communication in addition to direct
that to its desired destination via some programmers, in which the message is usually obtained in
addition to decoded. Schramm’s product is really as comes after:
