Popis: Though there exists a multitude of theories on communication, it has been proved difficult to capture the notion of sharing information and meaning in a systematic framework. Here, we explore to what extent the field of cognitive neurodynamics can contribute to the understanding of human communication by focusing on the reward structure in order to differentiate different types of communication and their associated neural and behavioral mechanisms. We argue that particularly the concept of intrinsic rewards provides a promising, but challenging avenue for communication research.
