Introduction to the topic
Communication scholars define Interpersonal
communication in numerous ways, usually describing
participants who are dependent upon one another. It can
involve one on one conversations or individuals interacting
with many people within a society. It helps us understand
how and why people behave and communicate in different
ways to construct and negotiate a social reality. While
interpersonal communication can be defined as its own
area of study, it also occurs within other contexts like
groups and organizations. Interpersonal communication is
the process that we use to communicate our ideas,
thoughts, and feelings to another person. Our interpersonal
communication skills are learned behaviors that can be
improved through knowledge, practice, feedback, and
reflection.

Interpersonal communication includes message sending and
message reception between two or more individuals. This
can include all aspects of communication such as listening,
persuading, asserting, nonverbal communication, and
more.
Overall, interpersonal communication can be conducted using
both direct and indirect mediums of communication such
as face-to-face interaction, as well as computer-mediated-
communication. Successful interpersonal communication
assumes that both the message senders and the message
receivers will interpret and understand the messages being
sent on a level of understood meanings and implications
