“…There is not much empirical research describing attentiveness per se as a style variable. As a broader concept, it is frequently embedded in interpersonal and therapeutic literature under the label "empathy" or "listening" (Iannotti, 1975;Jamison & Johnson, 1975;O'Connor & Alderson, 1974;Rogers, 1975). In general, the attentive communicator makes sure that the other person knows that he is being listened to.…”

The foundation of a communicator style construct is presented in this paper. The construct is stipulated to include communication variables which reflect the "way one verbally and paraverbally interacts to signal how literal meaning should be taken, interpreted, filtered, or understood." Nine independent variables (dominant, dramatic, animated, open, contentious, relaxed, friendly, attentive, and impression leaving) and one dependent variable (communicator image) operationally define the construct.Two independent samples, the first with 80 subjects and 102 items and the second with 1,086 subjects and 5 1 items, are analyzed in terms of (I.) how the variables cluster,(2) what dimensionality is embedded in the structure of intercorrelations, and (3) which variables best predict communicator image. Potentially, the construct provides a context for other communication variables, relates to perceptual processes, and explains interpersonal consequents.
