=== In literature === Intrapersonal communication is also relevant in the field of [[literature]]. Of particular interest to [[literary studies]] is the term "[[stream of consciousness]]".{{sfn|Rosengren|1999|pp=[https://books.google.com/books?id=DAXj7z0UmCQC&pg=PT81 81β82]}}{{sfn|Guerrero|2006|pp=[https://books.google.com/books?id=uz2Y3xl71CIC&pg=PA93 93β94]}} As a [[Stream of consciousness (psychology)|mental phenomenon]], it is a continuous flow of momentary states of consciousness as they are lived through by the subject. They include experiences like sensory perceptions, thoughts, feelings, and memories.{{sfn|Zalkind|1968|loc=[https://www.encyclopedia.com/literature-and-arts/language-linguistics-and-literary-terms/literature-general/stream-consciousness Stream of Consciousness]}}{{sfn|Baldick|2015|p=[https://books.google.com/books?id=N7S6BwAAQBAJ&pg=PA343 343]}} The stream of consciousness is usually seen as a form of intrapersonal communication and the term is sometimes used as a synonym for interior monologue.{{sfn|Alperstein|2003|p=[https://books.google.com/books?id=nOTtAAAAMAAJ 52]}}{{sfn|Baldick|2015|p=[https://books.google.com/books?id=N7S6BwAAQBAJ&pg=PA343 343]}} In literary criticism, the term refers to a [[narrative technique]] or a style of writing used to express this stream of experiences. This usually happens by presenting the thoughts of a character directly without any summary or explanation by the narrator. It aims to give the reader a very immediate impression of what a character's experience is like. It often takes an unpunctuated and disjointed form that violates rules of grammar and logic. Often-discussed examples are found in [[Dorothy Richardson]]'s ''[[Pilgrimage (novel sequence)|Pilgrimage]]'', [[James Joyce]]'s ''[[Ulysses (novel)|Ulysses]]'', and [[Virginia Woolf]]'s ''[[Mrs Dalloway]]''.{{sfn|Baldick|2015|p=[https://books.google.com/books?id=N7S6BwAAQBAJ&pg=PA343 343]}}{{sfn|Mepham|2003}} Closely related phenomena are introspective writing and inner speech writing. They are usually understood as forms of externalized inner speech in which the person writes down portions of their inner dialogue.{{sfn|Guerrero|2006|pp=[https://books.google.com/books?id=uz2Y3xl71CIC&pg=PA93 93β94]}}{{sfn|Daniels|Daniels|Cole|Wertsch|2007|p=[https://books.google.com/books?id=pn3S9TEjvUAC&pg=PA142 142]}}{{sfn|Diaz|Berk|Diaz|2014|p=[https://books.google.com/books?id=kZvKAgAAQBAJ&pg=PA293 293]}}
