Abstract

Interpersonal communication concerns the study of social interaction between people. Interpersonal communication theory and research seek to understand how individuals use verbal discourse and nonverbal actions, as well as written discourse, to achieve a variety of instrumental and communication goals such as informing, persuading, and providing emotional support to others.
