From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Communication theory Message design logic is a communication theory that makes the claim that individuals possess implicit theories of communication within themselves, called message design logics.[1] Referred to as a “theory of theories,” Message Design Logic offers three different fundamental premises in reasoning about communication.[2] As author Barbara O’Keefe describes, Message Design Logic is “the kind of communication-constituting belief system the message producer relies on in reasoning from the goals sought to the message design used.” [3] These three premises — Expressive Logic, Conventional Logic, and Rhetorical Logic — are belief systems that communicators might utilize when designing messages.
