Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Concept
In Schramm’s communication model, a field of experience is the accumulated background through which a person encodes and interprets messages.
Its common elements move from the shared communication code and social setting toward progressively more internal orientations.
Application
Translate the statement labels into their values: A = Values, B = Language, C = Attitudes, D = Beliefs, and E = Culture.
Begin with Language (B), the shared symbolic code used to form and interpret messages.
Next place Culture (E), the wider social framework in which that language acquires meaning.
Then place Attitudes (C) and Beliefs (D), which shape a person’s interpretation within that cultural framework.
Place Values (A) last as the more deeply held evaluative standards in this sequence.
Cross-check
The resulting order B → E → C → D → A uses every listed element exactly once and corresponds to Language → Culture → Attitudes → Beliefs → Values.
