Types of Speech Context
1. Intrapersonal – This refers to communication that centers on one person
where the speaker acts both as the sender and the receiver of message.
“The message is made up of your thoughts and feelings. The channel is
your brain, which processes what you are thinking and feeling. There is
feedback in the sense that as you talk to yourself, you discard certain ideas
and replace them with others.” (Hybels& Weaver, 2012, p 16)
Examples: • You spent the night thinking and analyzing why a student
from the other class talked to you on the way home and you decided it
probably meant nothing. • You felt happy while thinking about how
your teacher appreciated you for submitting your project before the due date
and you reflected on why this was so.
2. Interpersonal – This refers to communication between and among people
and establishes personal relationship between and among them. Solomon
and Theiss (2013) state that “the inter part of the word highlights how
interpersonal communication connects people… when you engage in
interpersonal communication, you and another person become linked
together… The personal part means that your unique qualities as a person
matter during interpersonal communication…” (p. 5)
Types of Interpersonal Context
a. Dyad Communication – communication that occurs between two people
Example: • You offered feedback on the speech performance of your
classmate. • You provided comfort to a friend who was feeling down.
b. Small Group – This refers to communication that involves at least three
but not more than twelve people engaging in a face-to-face interaction to
achieve a desired goal. In this type of communication, all participants can
freely share ideas in a loose and open discussion. Example: • You are
participating in an organizational meeting which aims to address the
concerns of your fellow students. • You are having a discussion with
your group mates on how to finish the assigned tasks.
3. Public – This type refers to communication that requires you to deliver or
send the message before or in front of a group. The message can be driven
by informational or persuasive purposes. “In public communication, unlike in
interpersonal and small group, the channels are more exaggerated. The
voice is louder and the gestures are more expansive because the audience
is bigger. The speaker might use additional visual channels such as slides
or a Power Point presentation.” (Hybels& Weaver, 2012, p 19) Example: •
You deliver a graduation speech to your batch. • You participate
in a declamation, oratorical, or debate contest watched by a number of
people.
4. Mass Communication – This refers to communication that takes place
through television, radio, newspapers, magazines, books, billboards,
internet, and other types of media. Example: • You are a student
journalist articulating your stand on current issues through the school’s
newspaper.
