Abstract
Graphic conceptual models have contributed, and can contribute, a great deal toward the advancement of the study of communication. At the same time, the theory of communication can be useful for he investigation of the nature of models.
A number of diagrammatic representations of the elements and their interrelationships in the communication process have been proposed, each with its own unique advantages. But their usefulness has been limited. One of the reasons for this is that every new model that is introduced uses its own new "language" of diagrammatic symbols and forms. [TRUNCATED]
