Osgood–Schramm Model of Communication

Osgood–Schramm Model of Communication (Charles Egerton Osgood, Wilbur Schramm, 1950s) – a descriptive model that frames communication as a two-way negotiation of meaning (as opposed to a direct exchange of information). Four components of each communicative act are identified: Sender (encoder of the message), Message (content of the message), Receiver (decoder of the message), and Semantic Barriers (personal influences that affect how the message is interpreted).
