Explain the principles of, and barriers to, effective interpersonal communication.

Explain the principles of, and barriers to, effective interpersonal communication. You must include explanations of the two principles and their significance. You must also explain at least two barriers to communication and how to overcome them. It is highly recommended that you use an example to think through at least one principle and barrier.
Analyze the role of communication in developing and maintaining one’s self-concept, self-image, and self-esteem. Be sure to define each term and directly connect each to communication. The best papers will address the links between psychology and communication and the importance of their relationship. You want to explain how ideas of the self-influence how we communication and how our communication exchanges shape how we think conceptualize ourselves.
Differentiate appropriate levels of self-disclosure (and emotional intelligence – optional) in various relationships. Covering emotional intelligence is optional. Covering self-disclosure is required. To have a conversation about differentiation, you must first define “self-disclosure.” You have not read the section on emotional intelligence yet, so you are only required to define “self-disclosure.” However, if you want feedback on your coverage of emotional intelligence, go ahead and try to discuss it by reading Chapter 8, section 8.2 in Bevan and Sole. Also, to get to the heart of assessing “appropriateness,” explain the importance of disclosure in various contexts. Explain how it can be beneficial and harmful. If you’d like an additional resource to think through this theme, watch the following video on online self-disclosure and think through the idea of “connecting” with others while being alone: Sherry Turkle: Connected, but alone?

. You can use this as one of the three required course resources. Please Note: If you want feedback on your coverage of emotional intelligence, go ahead and try to discuss it by reading Chapter 8, section 8.2 in Bevan and Sole.
Analyze the impact of gender and culture on interpersonal communications. Explain the relationship between gender, culture, and communication, and how acknowledging these elements is central to becoming an effective communicator. Consider the pros and cons of what are often deemed more “masculine” versus “feminine” forms of communication and how various styles can help us in particular contexts. Explain how culture (as transmitted through communication) trains us about gender norms and how these are potentially linked to how we communicate. And, please review the Week 1 and 2 guidance, as they offer many resources to help you think about culture, gender, and communication.
Notice that you have already covered three of these objectives in other areas of the class. For those sections, please use the work you’ve already created on these topics, in your discussion post or papers and build from there. Take what your instructors have told you about your coverage of those themes and make some adjustments for improvement. For instance, if you were told that you needed to use course material, be sure that you incorporate Bevan and Sole and include full APA citations. Most of the work is going to be developing your section on differentiating appropriate levels of self-disclosure and (if you choose) explaining the role of emotional intelligence in various relationships.

Introduction

Effective communication is a very significant part of our lives because it helps people to reach mutual understanding. It determines what kind of relationships we end up developing be it within our own private and professional lives. This means that we communicate daily in our lives with the aim of fostering and developing trust and respect. Therefore, communication as a word has many ramifications. According to Bevan and Sole (2014), communication is the process where two or more people endeavor to develop a shared meaning using verbal or non-verbal cues in varying texts or contexts. Communication is therefore useful in helping people better understand the other person or people within a conversation and the context of a conversation. People usually believe that communication is effortless, but in a real sense, two or more people involved in a conversation can misunderstand each other resulting in conflict or cases of distress. In this paper, I will discuss and explain the principles of and barriers to effective interpersonal communications using week 1 paper as the sole basis, analyze the role of communication in developing and maintaining one’s self concept, self-image, and self-esteem using week 2 content and external sources as well, differentiate appropriate levels of self-disclosure and analyze the impact of gender and culture on interpersonal communications. The paper will incorporate…
