I really appreciate your help with this. I am “investigating” the styles of interpersonal communication of the Generation X and the Millennial to later compare with Baby Boomers. The questions are only a guide. You don’t have to respond to each question, you can respond to all, some, or write a paragraph that will incorporate all or most of the question any way you want, my only request is that you try to elaborate. I am interested on knowing how people in your generation communicate most often and if that will be different depending the situation/person you are communicating with.

Your siblings? Your boyfriend? Your best friend? Other friends? …show more content…
Your siblings? Your boyfriend? Your best friend? Other friends? Friends of your friends? Boss? Coworkers? 13. Think of the communication styles (in general) of your generation and describe the preferred styles of communication you can identify.. 14. When you think of your own styles of communication, do you think you are influenced by your generational culture? How? 15. What are the things that influence the most your own style of communicating emotions in school, work, social events, and regular non-emotionally-charge situations? 16. Thinking on a regular week, what percentage of the time do you communicate by face-to-face interaction, phone or cellphone (voice), text messages, email, social media such as Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, etc. (the sum of all needs to be 100%) 17. Looking at the style with the highest percentage, why do you think it is that way? 18. How easy is it for you to develop relationships with people your own age and those of different ages? 19. Do think that your generation uses nonverbal communication (gestures, sounds, signs, etc.) more than verbal (words) communication? How about you? Please elaborate. 20. Anything else you want to
