What is the Shannon-Weaver model in communication?

• A model that describes only verbal communication

• A model focused exclusively on the technological aspects of data transmission

• A model that includes the sender, message, channel, receiver, and noise

• A model intended only for studying interpersonal conflicts

What are the main components of the communication process?

• Only sender and receiver

• Message, noise, and technologies

• Sender, message, channel, receiver, feedback, and noise

• Encoding, decoding, and media

How do nonverbal signals affect the effectiveness of communication?

• They do not matter in the communication process

• They can enhance, complement, or contradict verbal messages

• They are only used in art

• They replace verbal communication

What is the difference between one-way and two-way communication?

• One-way communication is always more effective

• One-way communication does not include feedback, while two-way communication does

• Two-way communication is used only in written form

• There is no difference; they are synonyms

How do cultural differences affect the interpretation of messages?

• They do not affect communication

• They are only important in business communication

• They can lead to different understandings of the same gestures or words

• Cultural differences are only considered in verbal communication

What barriers can arise in the process of communication?

• Only technical disturbances

• Language, psychological, physical, and cultural barriers

• Barriers exist only in mass communication

• All barriers can be overcome with the help of technology

What is the role of feedback in the communication process?

• It is not needed for effective communication

• It is only important in interpersonal communication

• It allows the sender to confirm that the message was understood correctly

• Feedback slows down the communication process

What is context in communication and how does it affect understanding?

• Context is only the physical environment

• Context includes the setting, cultural norms, and relationships between participants, affecting the interpretation of the message

• Context is important only for written communication

• Context does not affect understanding

How have technologies changed traditional communication models?

• They have completely replaced face-to-face communication

• They have added new channels and forms of communication, such as social media and video calls

• Technologies have not affected communication

• They have made communication less effective

What modern communication models exist?

• Only the Shannon-Weaver model

• Models focused exclusively on mass communication

• Transactional model, convergent model, and social network model

• Modern models do not exist
