Abstract
This study examines the expanding role and significance of communication fidelity theory within a bimodal communication event framework comprising both basic communication fidelity and listening fidelity. First, a discussion of communication fidelity situates the concept in relation to corollary theoretical constructs, and an argument is made for the essential, inherent presence of fidelity throughout the scholarly examination of human communication phenomena. Next appears an explication of four propositional statements supported by an ongoing program of empirical research, followed by a discussion of measurement considerations. A research agenda is then proposed that suggests various lines of future inquiry that could integrate this concept and measurement system into a variety of research programs.
