Components of Communication Process
Sender: initiator of the message Encode: process of translating an intended

Decode: process of translating symbols into the interpreted message.
Noise: any factor in the communication process creating disturbance.
Feedback: receiver’s basic response to the interpreted message.
One-way communication: when communication process does not allow for feedback.
Two-way communication: when communication process allows for feedback.

Perceptual processes
Perception: is the process of acquiring and making sense of information.
3 main stages:
I. Selecting: filtering stimuli so only some information receives our attention.
II.Organizing: patterning of information from the selection stage.
III.Interpreting: giving meaning to the selected and organized information.
