A Comprehensive Guide to Studying and Interpreting Communication
Interaction This practical book provides students and experienced
researchers with tools for studying communication behaviors through
direct observation. The sourcebook provides sound coverage of both
cutting-edge and well-established systems, measurements, and
procedures, as well as detailed information on measurement
selection, coding, reliability assessment, and analysis. In
addition to offering theoretical discussions from leading
researchers in the field, each chapter also focuses on how to apply
systems and principles in conducting actual original research and
uses examples and exemplars to help readers understand and apply
the methods.
Despite the general acknowledgment that communication is a process
rather than a condition, there has been little systematic
examination of dynamic processes within the context of
communication studies. Dynamic Patterns in Communication Processes
looks at these processes within the field as a whole, drawing from
many unexplored connections within the discipline. Using data
rather than simulation this work discusses the most timely topics
in communication today. The first part of the book focuses on the
methodological and theoretical significance of communication events
or states that vary regularly or in some distinct pattern over
time. The second part is a compilation of current theories and
research based on the ideas of cycling and dynamic patterns that
occur in diverse communication settings. Scholars and professionals
in mass communication and interpersonal communication will
appreciate the way this volume addresses topics relevant to both
fields. Those in research methods, organizational communication,
and psychology will also value the insights this book has to offer.
