  Noise can disrupt the flow of communication at any stage
• How does the Osgood-Schramm model define communication?

  It emphasizes the field of experience between the source and the receiver
• How does Barnlund's model of communication differ from traditional models?

  Barnlund's model is more interactive and emphasizes collaboration
• What is the effect of communication in emotional expression?

  Communication facilitates the expression of feelings and emotions
• What is the role of the speaker in communication?

  The speaker is the source of the information
• What is Osgood-Schramm's Model primarily concerned with?

  Communication and the interaction between the encoder and decoder
• In Osgood-Schramm's Model, what does the term "Field of experience" refer to?

  The shared experiences and knowledge of the communicator
• What role does the "Encoder" play in Osgood-Schramm's Model?

  The encoder is the source that creates and sends the message
• Who is referred to as the "Decoder" in Osgood-Schramm's Model?

  The receiver of the message

  The code of oral language used to express thoughts
