“…One early immediate feedback system involved audience members by asking them to hold up various colors of cards to indicate their positive, negative, and neutral reactions to a message (Amato & Ostermeier, 1967). Nyquist and Wulff (1982) report some success in changing public speaking behaviors through a "bug in the ear" system which allowed spoken comments to be sent to students during performance.…”

Treatments of performance feedback in the communication literature have generally focused on the pragmatic advantages of such systems while remaining uncritical of the information processing context in which such instructional interventions are employed. Communication theorists have distinguished between tasks that require conscious deliberation and tasks that are executed automatically. In the present study, the efficacy of using immediate and delayed feedback in generating improvement on a subsequent performance, for tasks which vary in information processing requirements, was examined. Analyses indicate that immediate feedback intervention is more effective when automatic processing occurs while delayedfeedback produces greater change with tasks involving deliberative and effortful processing. Interpretation of the findings, in light of extant theory and research, is provided.

“…The experimental hypotheses predicted the effect of OAR on two dependent variables : attitude toward message, and attitude toward speaker. 1. Ss in both the positive and free condition should shift attitude in the direction of the message.…”

Feedback has usually been viewed as a receiver-source loop or interaction. A process view of communication implies consideration of intra-audience interaction. Such consideration resulted in the conceptualization of a receiverreceiver loop that was designated observable audience response. A three treatment experiment was designed to test hypotheses that observable audience response would change attitudes toward a message topic and a speaker.Two treatments consisted of conditions in which coached confederates supplied either positive or negative feedback during the presentation of a message; in the third no effort was made to manipulate response. Although some individual hypotheses were not supported at the .05 criterion set, the overall results supplied evidence supporting the major predictions of the study.In the past few years an increasing number of "feedback studies" have been conducted. Investigators, for the most part, have been interested in observing the effects of varied receiver or audience responses on speakers.l Such observable response, or feedback, could be examined with a view toward determining its effects upon other receivers or audience members.A term other than "feedback" is needed because the variable is not a receiver-source loop, but rather a receiver-receiver loop.
