When people use information to interact with others, what is this called?

The correct answer is communication. Communication is the process of conveying information between individuals or groups, allowing them to share ideas, thoughts, and feelings. It encompasses various forms, including verbal, non-verbal, written, and visual means. Effective communication is essential in building relationships, understanding others, and facilitating teamwork.

While human relations involves the interactions between people and focuses on the dynamics of those relationships, communication is the foundational skill that enables those interactions to occur. Human relations relies heavily on effective communication, but it does not specifically define the act of sharing information. Other options, such as social networking, refers to creating connections and relationships primarily through online platforms, which is a subset of communication but not a direct answer to the question. Interpersonal skills encompass a broader range of abilities necessary for effective interaction, such as empathy, active listening, and conflict resolution but still do not singularly define the act of using information in interactions.
