FUNCTIONS OF
COMMUNICATION
“The best answer to bad speech Is good speech.”
Alan M. Dershowbiz

OVERVIEW

Hey learner! After having learned the basics in communication, you are now
about to explore ME! I will lead you to the HOWs of communication. I will help you
discover the various functions of communication including the different types of oral
texts.
Oh, by the way, “function” refers to the particular purpose for which a thing is
used, something exists, or a person is fitted to meet his or somebody else’s needs or
desires. Thus, functions of communication refer to a particular purpose for which you
as learner use communication, in your own context and time.
Speaking of purpose, you always have a definite purpose whenever you
communicate, which is usually intentional, perceptible or recognizable, and functional
or designed to achieve something positive. In some instances, however, your good
intention produces a concomitant or accompanying unintentional, dysfunctional result.
To avoid having this unintended negative effect, you need to use clear, correct
language and be sensitive.

This module contains the following:

 In the previous module, we have learned the nature and various
elements involved in the process of communication. This time, let us look
at the HOW communication works. Come along and learn with me!

LET’S TALK ABOUT IT

I. Now, let’s learn the 5 basic functions of communication

1. Control - to exercise
restraint or direction formally
or informally. This happens
particularly among members
or acquaintances.

2.Social Interaction -
Communication allows to act
and react to the behavior of
people around us. By revealing
our thoughts and feelings, we
elicit reactions from others.

3. Motivation - the energy that

influences a person’s behavior in
different ways to his pursuit of his
goal or objective. It encourages
people to live better.

7
 4. Emotional Expression -
Communication makes possible
the release or unloading of
emotions, resulting in catharsis.
It facilitates people’s expression
of their feelings and emotions.

5. Information dissemination - It is
the most basic function of
communication that provides data
and information for effective
completion of tasks, solution of
problems, and elimination of
uncertainty.

II. The purposes of communication can be effectively

realized and fulfilled by using different kinds of
“talks.” (Locke, 1998)

1. Small-talk is a form of nonthreatening communication that may be used to effect social

interaction.
Purposes:
To maintain the status quo;
Ø To break the ice;
Ø To get acquainted; and
Ø To establish relationship

2. Light-Control Talk is the tactful use of power to get results and may be used to motivate
people.
Purposes:
To persuade;
Ø To direct;
Ø To seek but not force agreement; and
Ø To use legitimate authority.

3. Heavy- Control Talk is designed to place blame and to control or regulate people. This
creates defensiveness on the part of the receiver and is rarely, if ever, appropriate.

Purposes:
Ø To blame;
Ø To attack;
Ø To threaten;
Ø To coerce; and
Ø To demand.

8
4. Search Talk is another nonthreatening approach when you want to gather data or the
consensus of other to be able to provide information.

Purposes:
Ø To center or an issue; and
Ø To examine and clarify the issue.

5. Straight Talk is good for problem-solving and conflict resolution and may be used to
facilitate emotional expression for catharsis, which is the act of purging, cleansing, and
unloading of ideas and emotions.

Purposes:
Ø To concentrate on the here and now;
Ø To focus on issues;
Ø To share feelings;
Ø To acknowledge feelings; and
Ø To accept without judging.
