Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

European and American communication styles are generally considered low context, meaning that messages are conveyed primarily through explicit language and less through contextual cues or implicit understandings. This contrasts with high context communication styles that rely heavily on contextual cues and shared cultural knowledge to convey meaning. European and American communication styles also tend to place less emphasis on harmony and group consensus, which may result in a higher likelihood of direct and assertive communication, such as saying "no" when needed.
