14. Its not just talk…..
We are communicating constantly through non verbal
cues….we create social artifacts in real life and on line
that send messages whether we intended it or not.
15. Are you beyond improvement?
Become a more effective communicator.
Don’t be Popeye!
16. Noise can compete with our ability to communicate
Physiological
Psychological
and Semantic
17. There Are No Jokes!
“I was just joking”
Freud describes jokes as letting in forbidden thoughts and feelings which society suppresses into the conscious
mind.
18. Social Learning Theory
We model the behavior of others.
Communication Theoretical Perspectives
19. Transactional Communication Systems Theory
A change in one element affects all of
the other elements.
No single cause explains why you
interpret messages the way you do.
21. Communication operates as an entity.
Visual, tactile, olfactory (aroma), intonational
Only 20% is communicated by words- Whoa!!
It is irreversible - you cannot hit undo. Crap!

27. But not all…
I don’t like you.
I have an opinion different than you.
Your message is understood…but I reject it.
Conflict of ethics. We don’t always have to tell
people what they want to hear. That is
manipulation.
28. Communication is a process
It is learned and culturally dependent
Sender to receiver - on average we interrupt others
every 12 seconds – learn to listen.
29. “ I didn’t mean what you thought I said”
“Blind spots” are the source of many communication problems.
30. Why text messages can go horribly wrong and hurt relationships.
Emphasis and tonal qualities can change the message:
“I didn‘t say she stole my money.”
I didn't say she stole my money - someone else said it
I didn't say she stole my money - I didn't say it
I didn't say she stole my money - I only implied it
I didn't say she stole my money - I said someone did, not necessarily her
I didn't say she stole my money - I considered it borrowed, even though
she didn't ask
I didn't say she stole my money - only that she stole money
I didn't say she stole my money - she stole stuff which cost me money to
replace

Richard Suzman of the National Institute on Aging, which funded this research, said he was "surprised by the magnitude of the relationship between loneliness and hypertension in this well-controlled, cross-sectional study." Nothing worse The researchers separated loneliness out from depression, age, race, gender, weight, alcohol consumption, smoking, blood pressure medications, hostility, stress, social support and other factors. Also, loneliness does eat at you. The morbid health effect of loneliness accumulates gradually and faster as you get older, the study found. Loneliness was worse for blood pressure than any other psychological or social factor the researchers studied. Weight loss and physical exercise reduce blood pressure by the same amount that loneliness increases it. Hawkley said this finding especially surprised her. "It's comparable to the effects you see for the health benefits that are so often advocated such as exercise [to] keep your blood pressure under control," Hawkley told LiveScience. Who is lonely About one in five Americans is lonely, a gnawing emotional state that is a patchwork of feeling unhappy, stressed out, friendless and hostile. The main psychological difference between lonely and non-lonely people is that the former perceive stressful circumstances as threatening rather than challenging and cope passively and withdraw from stress rather than trying to solve the problem, said study co-author John T. Cacioppo. Lonely people who are middle-aged and older tend to also have problems with alcoholism, depression, weak immune system responses to illness, impaired sleep and suicide. Some psychologists think that associations between loneliness and health or physiology are just part of a generic stress response, but this new research suggests loneliness has a unique impact.
We can imagine some group of Homo erectus sitting around their fire after a hard day of hunting and gathering. Someone announces, “Lake cold.” Another replies, “Fishing good.”
