Abstract
Several message procedures, designed to improve speech communications under extremely unfavorable speech-to-noise ratios, were examined. A message procedure based upon the informational principle of successive selections among a reduced number of alternatives was strikingly superior to a message procedure based upon the repetition of a single selection among a larger number of alternatives. Information, alone, is not the entire story because message diversity, without change of information, may produce nearly equivalent results.
