Studying Interpersonal Communication

Judgements, inferences and generalizations about interpersonal communication are made by us all. However, our observations are just the first step in understanding this phenomenon. This volume examines the systematic empirical study of interpersonal communication. Clark lays the groundwork for understanding systematic procedures, with an emphasis on experimental methodology. With this introduction to empirical study, readers can learn to become critical consumers of empirical research in interpersonal communication.
