WHAT COULD GO WRONG?
PRINCIPLE OF PARSIMONY:
people usually try to complete tasks with the least efort that will produce a
satisfactory solution. In task-oriented dialogue, this produces a tension
between conveying information carefully to the partner and leaving it to be
inferred, risking a misunderstanding and the need for recovery
WHAT COULD GO WRONG?
• Noise
• Poor choice and/or use of channels
• Nonverbals do not support verbals
• Diferences in common ground
– Semantics (choice of words, definition of words)
• Absence of feedback/ poor feedback
• Information/data overload
