Asynchronous Communication

communication that occurs when there is a time gap between when a message is sent and when it is received (email)

Channel

the medium through which a message passes from sender to receiver (texts, messages, notes, face-to-face, phone, video chat)

Cognitive Complexity

the ability to construct a variety of frameworks for viewing an issue (if JB was mad at me, being able to come up with explanations: maybe I did something wrong, or maybe something is going on in her life, or maybe I'm just being sensitive)

Communication

the use of messages to generate meanings

Communication Apprehension

feelings of anxiety that plague some people at the prospect of communicating in an unfamiliar or difficult context (public speaking)

Communication Competence

the ability to achieve one's goals in a manner that is personally acceptable and, ideally, acceptable to others (knowing that how you act towards people at the Stateman is not how you act towards colleagues at your internship)

Content Dimension

the dimension of a message that communicates information about the subject being discussed ("please pass the salt," "not now, I'm tired," etc, not a lot of personal/relationship/sensitive stuff involved)

Disinhibition

expressing messages without considering the consequences of doing so (more common through mediated channels; posting a snide comment, being bitchy in a text message)

Environment

both the physical setting in which communication occurs and the personal perspectives of the people involved (your own thoughts about work, marriage, politics and how they would differ if your personal history were different)

Feedback

a discernable response of a receiver to a sender's message (a thread of text messages)

Hyperpersonal Communication

an acceleration of the discussion of personal topics and relational development beyond what normally happens in face-to-face interaction (your facebook feed is always filled with smiling photos and exciting announcements, and it cuts out things like stuttering with words or a big zit on your forehead that would be obvious if you were face-to-face)

Leanness

a description of messages that carry less information due to a lack of nonverbal cues (sarcasm and humor can be misinterpreted in texts, and the full messages can be construed)

Noise

external, physiological, psychological distractions that interfere with the accurate transmission and reception of a message (literal noise, headache, distraction)

Relational Dimension (of a message)

the dimension of a message that expresses the social relationship between two or more individuals (you would not treat the Wegmans cashier as you would your professor or mother)

Richness

the quantity of nonverbal cues that accompany spoken messages (in a face-to-face conversation, words can be emphasized, there can be body language, etc)

Self-Monitoring

the process of attending to one's behavior and using these observations to shape the way one behaves (being able to look from the outside in and think to yourself ("I sound like an derp," "I need to speak up," "I need to dial it back," etc.)

Social Media

mediated communication channels used primarily for personal reasons including text messages, twitter, email, instant messaging, and social networking services

Synchronous Communication

communication that occurs in real time (face-to-face, phone call)
