Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: 4

By defining communication as an exchange of information or feelings, the concept goes beyond a simple transfer of information to the establishment of a relationship between people. This is a much more complete expression of the purpose of communication. Both verbal and nonverbal information are exchanged during communication.

Answer to Question 2

Correct Answer: 2, 4, 3, 1

With competitive negotiation the following occurs: the tangible goals are for each side to get as much as possible; there are insufficient resources for each side to attain the desired goal; each side believes it is not possible for both sides to attain the desired goal; and the goal is to win against the other side.
