Memoirs and Journals as Maps of Intrapersonal Communication.

Jensen, Marvin D.

Communication Education, v33 n3 p237-42 Jul 1984

Explores the use of introspective writing by others as a means of understanding two characteristics of intrapersonal communication: the process of selective memory which defines and redefines personal history and the pattern of habitual thinking which confirms self-identity. Recommends the classroom use of memoirs and journals. (PD)
