It is concerned with the accuracy of transference of symbols of communication from the sender to receiver, the accuracy depending on the technical efficacy of the medium (e.g. a telephone set) and of the channel (e.g. a telephone cable).
Level B. The Semantic Problem
It is concerned with identity or a satisfactorily close approximation of the intended meaning of the sender and the interpretation of meaning by the receiver.
Level C. The Effectiveness Problem
It is concerned with the extent to which the received meaning affects the conduct of the receiver in the way desired by the sender.
Level C involves the effectiveness problem where we find out how effectively the message is delivered and how the message is decoded. This problem only arises due to the source of communication such as transferring messages through phones can create technical issues while communicating.
