Features of Berlo’s Model
Berlo’s model of communication (proposed in 1960) is
also referred to as Sender-Message-Channel-Receiver
(SMCR). It describes factors affecting the individual
elements in communication. The model consists of four
elements as follows.
1) Source: The one who initiates the message.
2) Message: The information conveyed.
3) Channel: The medium through which the signals pass.
4) Receiver: The person who receives the information.
Criticism of Berlo’s Model
There is no concept of noise or any kind of barrier in
communication.
It is a linear model of communication; there is no two-way
communication.
Both parties must be similar according to the factors.
