Some people may agree with the statement that telephones and email have made communication between people less personal. While others do not. The answer to this question can be different depending on the individual's perspectives. However, as far as I am concerned, I disagree with the statement for two major reasons as follows.
To begin with, people can cogenial communicate with others due to having communication appliance such as telephones and e-mail. This is because they have telephones, they can talk with others whenever they want or instantly. Therefore they can communicate with others about personal subject and share their feeling. After people talked each other and went home each, if they have more want to talk then they make a phone call and continue their talking personal affair. According to a research conducted by Korea university economy institute, 65% surveyed people responded that they prefer telephone to face-to-face communication. They said that making a phone call or text-message is better when they talk private and reliable also they can instant interaction through telephone. This shows that telephone and e-mail make people communication personally.
In addition, people tend to use telephones when they talk something like hard to talk directly. People are reluctant to accept and give advice which makes scratch their mind at once but helpful when they accepted. When someone give advice in front of him or her, he or she might hurt and they would close their mind even though the advice is very useful. Therefore the situation later is very rigid and not-personal. In contrast, when people give advice, they can use e-mail and write that why advice is needed and helpful detail then acceter would grad to read them and easily accepted advice. Moreover, telephone or e-mail can useful when people communicate private and vulnerable subject while face-to-face communication often rejected. According to a survey conducted by MBC, one of the Korean republic broadcasting stations, 70 percent of people, among surveyed people responded that they use telephone more than other communication way when they talk privately. In the survey of more than a thousand people in the Seoul metro-politan area, the respondents said that they think that telephone is the best item when they communicate hard to say and seems like keep private personally. This proves that telephone is helpful for people when they communicate private and personally.
In conclusion, for the reasons I stated above, I am firmly convinced that telephones and email have made communication between people more personal. |
