电子邮件的副语言特征分析

Analysis of E-mail Paralinguistic Features from the Perspective of Media Richness Theory

媒体丰富度理论最初是针对商务团体利用不同的媒体进行交际而提出的理论,后来该理论被加以拓展,通过理论化的标准对不同媒体的丰富度或贫瘠度加以区分,以利于选择最有效的媒体进行交际。本文旨在通过对电子邮件交际中副语言特征的分析,利用媒体丰富度理论来证明电子邮件是电脑媒体交际中丰富度较高的媒体。

Media richness theory was originally put forward to cater for different effective media communications by business organizations. Later on this theory was expanded to differentiate media richness and leanness based on accepted standards so as to help choose the most effective media in terms of different situations. This paper analyzes e - mail paralinguistic features from the perspective of media richness theory and further proves e - mail has been a rich and effective medium in computer- based communication.
