Communication Theory Research Paper

I’ve attached a copy of some sources you can use and more information to help with this assignment. 

For this assignment, you will research and analyze a Social penetration  theory. The paper should be at least 1,750- to 2,100 words, use at least four authoritative sources of which at least two are peer-reviewed journal articles, be written in third person, take a scholarly tone, and reflect APA format and documentation rules. 

Here are some reflection questions to get your started that you should address within the paper:  

Why were you drawn to this theory?  What captivated you to want to write about it?  

What have you learned about the theory?  

How do you relate to it?  Have you seen it used in the media, such as in news coverage, speeches, political advertisements or commercials for products?  

Is the theory still applicable today?  Does it still have meaning?  How is it reflected in the workplace? In the social setting?

What have the critics said about the theory?   

Make sure to use in-text citations and end-of-text references in APA style.
