Abstract
The authors urge research attention to a neglected aspect of communication —namely, the relationship between source and receiver. In the present article, they advance a number of propositions about the effects on communication of similarity or difference between a communicator and the recipient of his message, summarize research bearing on these propositions, and point to needs for further investigation.
