Discussion 1

Reflect: Take  time to reflect on how your self-concept, self-image, or self-esteem  have affected the way you communicate with others and how feedback from  others has shaped how you conceptualize who you are. Think about both  intrapersonal and interpersonal communication.

Write: Based on the information in Bevan and Sole (2014) in Chapter 2,

• Define self-concept, self-image, and self-esteem and relate each to  interpersonal and intrapersonal communication. Write at least two  sentences analyzing each term.
• Provide an example of how your self-concept, self-image, or  self-esteem has affected your interpersonal communication and how  interpersonal communication has shaped your ideas of self.
  • Use specific examples to illustrate your points.
• How does your example illustrate the relationship between psychology and communication?

Your initial response should be 200 to 300 words in length and is due by Thursday, Day 3.
