Journal Entry

1. Which communication model best describes your typical communication with your partner? Analyze a recent interaction (phone conversation, text message, face-to-face, email interchange, etc.) and apply the elements of the communication model to it. What insights can you draw from this?

2. How does your relationship with your partner meet the definition of interpersonal communication? Why did you choose this relationship over any other you have? What aspects do you want to focus on for improvement (yourself and/or the relationship)? How motivated are you to make changes in yourself and your communication behavior? Why?
