Communication and interaction patterns • • Verbal and non verbal communications are the components of social interaction Communication entails 1. 2. 3. the encoding of a person’s perceptions, thoughts and feelings into language and other symbols The transmission of these symbols or language The decoding of the transmission by another person

Communication as a Process • • • The first step in understanding and intervening in interaction patterns is for the worker to be aware that when ever people are together in a group, they are communicating Workers who are aware that group members communicate for many reasons can observe, assess and understand communication and interaction patterns Noise and other distortions inside or outside the meeting room can interfere with effective communication

Feature Description Descriptive describe how most members act, feel, and think Consensual shared among group members, rather than personal, idiosyncratic beliefs Injunctive (or normative) define which behaviors are "bad" or "wrong" and which are "good" or "acceptable" Prescriptive set the standards for expected behaviors Proscriptive identify behaviors that should not be performed Informal describe the unwritten rules of conduct in the group Implicit often so taken for granted members follow them automatically Self-generating emerge as members reach a consensus through reciprocal influence Stable once they develop, resistant to change and passed from current members to new members
