Interesting theories

This week I read chapter 5 of "Theories of Human Communication" by Littlejohn and Foss. I liked this chapter! It discussed theories of messages. Of particular interest to me are these theories:
  • Action-assembly theory (actions are integrated into a network of knowledge, nodes, mental models): John Green
  • Strategy-choice models, including constructivism (conceptual categories, personal constructs): Jesse Delia, Barbara O'Keefe
Pages 120-124 were of particular interest to me!
