Models of Communication
Linear
Model
Circular
Model
Helical
Model
22
Linear Model
 Description:
 One-way communication that the
sender delivers the message and the
receiver receives the message
 Limitation:
 No chance for clarification of message
/ senders have to verify that what the
listener heard is what they meant to say
23
Circular model
 Description:
 Two-way communication that the sender
delivers messages and the receiver gives
feedback to the sender on the message he/she
receives
 Limitation:
 This model may require a longer time of
communication (vs Linear Model)
 Noises will lead to unintended additions,
distortions, or deletions of a message that block
desired understanding (vs Helical Model)
24
Helical Model
 Description:
 communication evolves in the beginning
and then develops further with
modifications
 Limitation:
 require the longest time of communication
and not applicable to the urgent cases
25
Effective Communication

Ways to Enhance Effective Communication:

e.g. gather information / restate information,
thoughts or feelings / clarify problems / express
own feelings / stay calm and considerate / use of
an I-message instead of you-messages
 Active Listening

e.g. be motivated / make eye contact / show
interest / avoid distracting actions / empathy /
take in the whole picture / ask questions /
paraphrase / don’t interrupt / don’t over talk
