Summary: Audiological Barriers
Barriers can play a huge part to miscommunication whether it be visual, audiological or even the temperature. Environmental factors such as bright sunlight, noisy traffic or a room that is too hot/cold can all be very distracting. When you are distracted you may be listening but not fully taking in what is being said (passive listening). The best way to deal with distractions is to minimise them in order for everyone involved to concentrate on information being shared. Audiological barriers such as a faulty or missing hearing aid, use of jargon, language barriers, tone of voice or speed of speaking can make the information seem impossible to understand. Cultural, intellectual, or physical differences, or a previous bad experience can affect the way someone interprets the information. They may have already made a decision of output just by viewing interpreter and not yet listening. Language differences, use of slang/jargon will make it harder for the other person to understand what is being said. Prejudice can cloud judgement and vital information could be ignored by age, race, religion, gender, accent or even just by the way someone looks or dresses. …show more content…

    Aspects of the physical environment can affect the quality of communication between people and may even deter individuals from making an effort to communicate with one another in the first place. In particular, the nature of the setting in which communication takes place, noise levels, the arrangement of seating, the quality of lighting, and the amount of available space and time can all impact on the effectiveness of interaction and communication. It is very hard to hear what someone is saying if there is a lot of background noise. It is also very difficult to make sense of other people’s facial expressions if you can’t see their faces properly due to poor lighting.
