Verbal Communication - GCSE Psychology Definition

Reviewed by: Lucy Vinson

Last updated

Verbal communication is the way people share information, ideas, and feelings using spoken words. It is an important part of how we connect with others and can include face-to-face conversations, phone calls, or any situation where we use our voices to express ourselves. When studying GCSE Psychology, understanding verbal communication helps us learn about how language influences our thoughts, emotions, and behaviour. It also explores how we can improve our speaking skills to communicate more clearly with others.
