 Communication is a
process by which
information is exchanged
between individuals
through a common system
of symbols, signs, or
behaviour. It is essential in
our everyday activities,
and is required in order to
function in any aspect of
life. It is considered to be
a dynamic or an ongoing
process where people
understand each other and
where a shared meaning is
created. 11
 Interpersonal communication came into being when men
began to exchange ideas and thoughts to one another. It is a kind of
communication in which people convey their feelings, ideas,
emotions and information face to face. It is not only about what is
said and what is received but also about how it is said and how the
body language and facial expressions used (Sayuno 2019).

Interpersonal communication, commonly called dyadic

communication, is communication that involves two persons or two
groups of people who share the roles of sender and receiver. It is
interacting with one other person or in a small and informal
aggregate of people (Padilla, Bicomong, Dato-on, Rosario, and
Sabornido 2003). Interpersonal communication is person-to-person
communication with messages that are focused on individual
interests or needs (Sayuno 2019).

 3 FORMS OF DYADIC
COMMUNICATION
Conversation is the most
common form of dyadic
communication. It may be
defined as a friendly and usual
informal talk between two
people who exchange their views
and ideas (Padilla, Bicomong,
Dato-on, Rosario, and Sabornido
2003). It is a face-to-face
interaction between individuals.
It is informal in nature, with no
agenda or set specific purpose
and commonly done for
therapeutic purposes (Sayuno
2019). 13
 3 FORMS OF DYADIC
COMMUNICATION
A dialog is the most personal
and most intimate form of
dyadic communication
(Padilla, Bicomong, Dato-on,
Rosario, and Sabornido
2003). In some ways similar
to a conversation but is more
intimate and purposive. It
could be a written or spoken
exchange of ideas between
two or more people (Sayuno
2019).
14
 3 FORMS OF DYADIC
COMMUNICATION
An interview is a form of dyadic
communication that is considered a
two-way process where both parties
alternately talk and listen. It is a
conversation with a purpose which
aims to help the interviewee to
understand and put into a larger
context the interpersonal, social and
cultural aspects of the environment
(Padilla, Bicomong, Dato-on,
Rosario, and Sabornido 2003).
Moreover, an interview is a formal
and purposive consultation. In this
communication situation, the
interviewer’s objective is to obtain
specific pieces of information from
the interviewee (Sayuno 2019).

 Tips to Improve Interpersonal Communication Skills
1. Be familiar of yourself. Self-awareness is the practice of consciously being aware of what you are
thinking and feeling and why you are doing so. Being aware of your own emotions can significantly
benefit your interpersonal communication skills.

2. Be conscious, respectful and empathetic toward others. When you engage positive interpersonal
skills, you allow others to express themselves without automatically jumping on them- meaning that
you are genuinely listening to what they have to say.

3. Actively listen to others. Listening is a skill that must be developed and honed. By listening to
understand rather than listening to respond, you demonstrate that what the person you are speaking
with has to say is important to you.

4. Avoid talking over others or speaking for them. It allows the person to have time to finish their
thoughts and do not presume to know what they want to say. Give them the respect they deserve by
giving them the time to say it for themselves.

5. Elaborate more by saying “yes” before saying “no”. It is about saying “yes” and building on it rather
than shutting down the conversation with a “no”.
