The sequence of common elements in the field of experience related to communication identified by Wilbur Schramm is:

The ordering of Schramm's common elements of the field of experience runs Language, Culture, Attitudes, Beliefs, Values, which is the sequence 2, 5, 3, 4, 1.

Language as statement 2 comes first, the shared symbolic system without which experience cannot be exchanged.

Culture as statement 5 follows, the broad way of life within which language is embedded.

Attitudes as statement 3 and beliefs as statement 4 come next, the dispositions and convictions carried within that culture.

Values as statement 1 close the chain, the deep guiding standards underlying attitudes and beliefs.

Schramm's field of experience explains that communication succeeds only where these shared elements overlap between sender and receiver.
