What is communication?Can a person live without him?Why is it necessary?What are the purpose of the communication?These issues are of interest to many people, they are studied in psychology.Let's try to understand.
concept of communication means the interaction that occurs between people and aims to establish and develop relationships, knowledge of each other.Communication involves the mutual influence of the actors in the formation of the views of each other, the regulation of behavior, the establishment of joint activities.
Simply put, interpersonal communication - it is the relationship between people, dealing with all kinds of human activity.
Scientists differently considering the relationship communication activities.
Some psychological schools believe that communication and work are the two equivalent sides of existence (being) human.Others see the activity as a condition of interpersonal communication, but communication itself - as a necessary element of activities.Still others believe that it is a special, specific kind of activity.
Each view has its own rationale, therefore has the right to exist.In everyday life, work and communication usually act in unity, but in some situations they can take place independently of each other.
Community, as any kind of human relationship, has its purpose, content, forms, views, side barriers function.
Content multidisciplinary communication.It can be:
- material, based on the exchange of products activity.
- cognitive, transmitting knowledge.
- of activity, during which an exchange of skills or abilities.
- Air Conditioning, aimed at changing the psycho-emotional state of the interlocutor.
- motivational, involves the creation of certain motifs, motives for action.
The content largely determines the forms of communication.They also provide the success of the communication process, to help achieve this goal.
All forms of communication can be divided into two main types: direct and indirect.
Today, more time people took the first type of communication (also called indirect).Transfer of business information by fax, data transmission over the telephone or through the Internet, the involvement of intermediaries issues is mediated, indirect communication.The most glaring example - social networks.Spend hours communicating with distant interlocutors, a person may never see his counterpart.
Selecting a different form of communication, contact or close, is not always possible, but psychologists consider it to be the most productive.Communication "eye to eye" allows you to track the immediate reaction of the parties to use verbal (speech) and non-verbal means of interaction.The latter include facial expressions, gestures, intonation and so on. It is non-verbal communication helps to convince the audience to assess the intentions of the interlocutor, his sincerity.Verbal and non-verbal forms of communication in person one.We can say that they are inseparable.
psychologists today share the concept of communication in many forms, the main ones are:
- anonymity.Communication between strangers does not require continuing.Examples: transport passengers, passers-by on the street, the audience at concerts.After receiving the necessary information, or spent a short time together, people disagree.Formally
- -role (functional).This communion of the "superior-subordinate", "buyer-seller", "employee-employee".The longest and there will be informative service relationship.Employees usually spend much time together and know a lot about each other.
- informal.All kinds of off-duty and vnedelovyh relations:
- Ritual (for example, the military at the meeting "take the salute," the familiar set assuming a short answer question about how the case, etc.).
- Intimate, implying a contact-loving people with its own set of voice and non-verbal methods.
- Other forms of communication.
Today, more time it takes to functional-role communication and communication with the help of technical means.Over time, changing forms of communication, its types and means.
