Intrapersonal communication is a form of communication that happens solely within an individual's mind [1]. Intrapersonal communication encompasses the internal thoughts that one has, including ideas that arise from conversations with others and thoughts that are conceptualized when one is alone [1]. Intrapersonal communication is also referred to as self-talk and both concepts are often mentioned concurrently. [1]
Intrapersonal Communication and Self-Talk
[edit]Positive and negative self-talk is an important part of everyday life. [2] Research has indicated that the inner discussions an individual has with themselves influence their overall mental health. [2] Individuals with more positive forms of self-talk can encourage themselves through the use of intrapersonal communication. [2] Oppositely, the negative form of self-talk can be discouraging for an individual's intrapersonal communication. [2] People who reaffirm positive life events through intrapersonal communication and positive self-talk have an increased sense of well-being compared to those who engage in negative self-talk surrounding negative life events. [3] Positive and negative self-talk can happen simultaneously and this often has an impact on an individual's worldview. [3] The way that an individual copes with their different forms of self-talk from various situations can influence how an individual engages socially with other people. [3] Relationships with family, friends, acquaintances, and strangers can be greatly affected by intrapersonal communication. [3]
Intrapersonal Communication in Couples' Relationships
[edit]There are many ways that an individual can experience intrapersonal communication. [4] This is due to the fact that intrapersonal communication can occur in a wide variety of settings, forms, and frequencies, which impact people differently. [4] The environment that an individual grows up in and their personality type influence how each person uses intrapersonal communication in daily life. [4] In particular, it is important to note that there is a correlation between the use of intrapersonal communication and the overall satisfaction within spousal relationships. [5] The concept of intrapersonal relationships was first used by Linda Lederman in 1996 to describe the concept of how intrapersonal communication has an impact on an individual's other relationships. [1] Couples who have different ways of communicating intrapersonally are likely to engage in negative discourse, due to their different communication styles. [5] For couples who are interconnected, stress can occur within a relationship if the partners' individual intrapersonal communication styles are incompatible. [5] If both individuals in a couples' relationship have similar intrapersonal communication styles, this is often a predictor of a more stable relationship. [5] Intrapersonal communication is an important dynamic to consider within couples' relationships as it impacts the overall outlook that an individual has regarding the quality of a relationship. [5]
Intrapersonal Communication in Online Settings
[edit]Online communication can also have an impact on an individual's intrapersonal communication style. [6] Although an individual may look to the internet to reaffirm the intrapersonal conversations occurring in their mind, online discourse can change the intrapersonal communication style a person decides to use. [6] The goals that an individual aims to achieve through their intrapersonal communication can shift through the use of online communication. [6] Intrapersonal communication styles can also be reaffirmed in online settings. [6] Individuals can find content on digital forums that aligns with their beliefs and this can further establish their intrapersonal communication style. [6][7] The way that an individual communicates online is influenced by the intrapersonal communication style used upon entering online forums. [7] The variety of public opinions that can be shared through an online discussion forum connect back to different intrapersonal communication styles used by individuals in everyday life. [7] The opinions formed through intrapersonal communication can mesh and contradict one another simultaneously. [7] Whether an individual has positive or negative self-talk determines how they choose to present themselves during online discourse. [3][7]
