The 3 Elements of Communication – Body Language, Voice and Words. When we communicate with someone face to face we pass the information and understanding through 3 different elements – body language, voice and words. The message isn’t however communicated equally across all 3. This was demonstrated in a theory by Dr. Albert Mehrabian in 1970.
In his work, Albert Mehrabian suggested the percentage split between body language, voice and words were: 1. Body Language – the visible actions that we show to others using all parts of our body – 55% 2. Voice – the pitch, pace, tone and volume of our voice – 38% 3. Words – the actual words that make up our message – 7% This often surprises many p...
When we communicate on a face to face basis, we use all 3 of these elements. If we want to communicate effectively, we need to give thought to all 3. We need to make sure that each element is matched with each other and the message to ensure our message is received and understood. For example: You want to deliver a positive upbeat message. You have...
While the above works for face to face communication, what about other communication channels such as the telephone and email? We might assume that they just get forgotten about because they are no longer relevant. This isn’t true. We might think the percentages adjust to take the new communication channel into account. This is partly true.

Jan 18, 2017 · We humans are capable of vocalising many different words in a range of languages. But what is it that gives us a remakable and variable voice?
Phonetics studies human speech. Speech is produced by bringing air from the lungs to the larynx (respiration), where the vocal folds may be held open to allow the air to pass through or may vibrate to make a sound (phonation).

The human voice is an extremely expressive instrument both when used for speech and for singing. By means of subtle variations of timing and pitch contour speakers and singers add a substantial amount of expressiveness to the linguistic or musical content and we are quite skilled in deciphering this information.
