Example of intrapersonal

Answer 1

• Day-dreaming
• Nocturnal dreaming, including and especially lucid dreaming
• Speaking aloud (talking to oneself), readingaloud, repeating what one hears; the additional activities of speaking and hearing (in the third case of hearing again) what one thinks, reads or hears may increase concentration and retention. This is considered normal, and the extent to which it occurs varies from person to person. The time when there should be concern is when talking to oneself occurs outside of socially acceptable situations.[1]
• Internal monologue, the semi-constant internal monologue one has with oneself at a conscious or semi-conscious level.
• Writing (by hand, or with a word processor, etc.) one's thoughts or observations: the additional activities, on top of thinking, of writing and reading back may again increase self-understanding ("How do I know what I mean until I see what I say?") and concentration. It aids ordering one's thoughts; in addition it produces a record that can be used later again. Copying text to aid memorizing also falls in this category.
  • Writing need not be limited to words in a natural or even formal language. Doodling also falls into this category. Children may be communicating intrapersonally when they doodle and adults sometimes argue that they do...
• Making gestures while thinking: the additional activity, on top of thinking, of body motions, may again increase concentration, assist in problem solving, and assist memory.
  • Again, routinely observed in children, the equivalent of doodling without writing. Everyday images are transformed by gestures that form a new lens through which to view the images.

Answer 2

Intrapersonal communication refers to the internal dialogue or self-talk that individuals have with themselves. It involves reflecting on thoughts, feelings, and beliefs internally without sharing them with others. For example, when someone evaluates their own performance after a job interview, they are engaging in intrapersonal communication to analyze their thoughts and emotions.

Answer 3

If something is intrapersonal then it is something that takes place within a person's mind. For example: someone who is on a diet and is being offered a super sugary sweet treat may experience an intrapersonal conflict as to whether they should eat the treat and break their diet or not.
