Communication is the process by which individuals use symbols, signs, and behaviors to exchange information.
![Page 8: Powerpoint Lecture 1 - Communication and Culture](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032506/55ce0f00bb61eb537e8b47eb/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Characteristics of CommunicationCharacteristics of Communication
Symbolic−Symbols are arbitrary
constructions that refer to people, things, and concepts
−Symbols stand for things, but they are not the “thing.” There is no relationship between symbols and the “thing” they stand for.

Meaning−the significance we bestow
on phenomena—what they signify to us
−We negotiate the meaning of symbols with others through communication

Characteristics of CommunicationCharacteristics of CommunicationRequires a shared code
−A code is a set of symbols joined together to create meaning
−Involves encoding and decoding

High-Context vs Low-Context
High-context cultures use contextual cues (such as time, place, relationship, and situation) to interpret meaning and send subtle messages.
Low-context cultures use very
direct language and rely less on situational factors to communicate.
![Page 27: Powerpoint Lecture 1 - Communication and Culture](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032506/55ce0f00bb61eb537e8b47eb/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)

Collectivist vs IndividualistCollectivists tend to perceive
themselves as members of larger groups first and communicate from that perspective.
People from individualist cultures value individuality, autonomy, and privacy.

Masculine vs Feminine
Masculine cultures place value on assertiveness, achievement, ambition, and competitiveness.
Feminine cultures place value on nurturance, relationships, and quality of life
![Page 34: Powerpoint Lecture 1 - Communication and Culture](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032506/55ce0f00bb61eb537e8b47eb/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Comfort with uncertainty
Cultures differ in the degree of anxiety that members feel about the unknown. The ability to adapt behaviors in order to reduce uncertainty and risk, is referred to as uncertainty avoidance.
![Page 35: Powerpoint Lecture 1 - Communication and Culture](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032506/55ce0f00bb61eb537e8b47eb/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Time Orientation
The way that cultures communicate with and about time Monochronic cultures treat time as a
limited resource that can be saved or wasted.
Polychronic cultures are less concerned with making every moment count and time is a much more fluid concept.
![Page 36: Powerpoint Lecture 1 - Communication and Culture](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032506/55ce0f00bb61eb537e8b47eb/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Value of Emotional Expression
Hyperbole, vivid language with great emotional intensity, is often used by collectivist cultures. Individualist cultures tend to use more understatement, language that downplays the emotional intensity or importance of events.
![Page 37: Powerpoint Lecture 1 - Communication and Culture](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032506/55ce0f00bb61eb537e8b47eb/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
