Question 1 of 5
The best definition of communication is:
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Communication is defined as an ongoing, interactive form of transmitting transactions. It involves a dynamic process of sending (encoding) and receiving (decoding) messages while being influenced by the experiences and perceptions of both the sender and receiver. This process is interactive and occurs within an environment, shaping individuals' self-concept, identity, and relationships. The correct answer captures the complexity and interactive nature of communication.
Choice A, 'the sending and receiving of messages,' is too simplistic and does not encompass the interactive nature of communication.
Choice B, 'the effect of sending verbal messages,' focuses solely on verbal communication and overlooks non-verbal forms.
Choice D, 'the use of message variables to send information,' emphasizes technical aspects rather than the interactive and transactional nature of communication.
