Culture and cultural orientation can also play a significant role in how communication is given and received. Giger and Davidhizar (2008) have identified six key cultural phenomena which can impact communication. These six phenomena are: 1) space; 2) social organization; 3) time; 4) environmental control (not environmental grounding); 5) biological variations; and 6) communication (not age).
