Nonverbal communication refers to messages transmitted without words through vocal, physical, and environmental means. It makes up 60% of all communication. The seven main types of nonverbal behavior are proxemics (use of space), haptics (touch), chronemics (time), kinesics (body language), artifacts (appearance), vocalics (paralanguage), and environment. Nonverbal cues like smiling, eye contact, body language, and appearance can influence perceptions and compliance.

What is NoNverbal CommuNiCatioN? Oral and non-oral messages expressed by other than linguistic means. Messages transmitted by vocal means that do not involve language Sign language and written words are not considered nonverbal communication
Nonverbal communication is powerful 60% of all communication is nonverbal (Burgoon, Buller, Woodall,1989)
there are 7 types of NoNverbal behavior : Proxemics Haptics Chronemics Kinesics Artifacts Vocalics or Paralanguage Environment
proXemiCs (distaNCe or spaCe) Different cultures have different comfort levels of distance As children grow older and become less dependent on parents they require more space Men tend to take up more space than women Example: When you go to the movies with someone of the opposite sex who usually gets the armrest?
Personal Space Intimate distance Personal distance Social distance Public distance Barrier behaviors and territory You are here
HAPTICS (TouCH) The power of touch: A (1997) study found that strangers that were touched were more likely to return change left in a phone booth(Klienke) A (1992) study found that food servers who used touch received larger tips (Hornick) Library study (1976) found that students who were slightly touched by clerk while checking out library books evaluated the library much more favorably than those who were not touched.
CHRoNEMICS (TIME) How is time used to communicate? What does it mean to you when someone is always late? A study conducted by Burgoon (1989) found that people who arrive 15 minutes late are considered dynamic, but much less competent, composed and sociable than those that arrive on time.
KINESICS (bEHAvIoR) Facial expressions Eye contact Body language Gestures Physical appearance
FACIAl ExPRESSIoNS The face is capable of conveying 250,000 expressions (Birdwhistle, 1970) Smiling increases sociability, likeability, and attraction(LaFrance Hecht, 1995) Food servers who smile more often earn increased tips (Heslin Patterson, 1982) Studies conducted on students caught cheating found that students who smiled were treated with more leniency (LaFrance Hecht, 1995)
EyE CoNTACT Successful pan handlers establish eye contact (Beebe, 1974) People are more likely to comply when more eye contact is used Eye contact conveys a sense of sincerity Eye contact establishes a connection between persons
body lANguAgE Mirroring building rapport with others by mimicking their nonverbal cues People like those who are similar or equal to them Mirroring body language facilitates compliance Many self-help books suggest mirroring techniques to get people to like them Example: The book Unlimited Power by, Anthony Robbins
Gestures Gestures can be seen as subtle or not so subtle cues We use gestures to take the place of words, or help us to increase understanding of what is being said
Physical aPPearance More attractive people are judged to be happier, more intelligent, friendlier, stronger, and kinder and are thought to have better personalities, better jobs, and greater marital competence (Knapp, 1992) Attractive people get more dates, higher grades, higher tips, and lighter court sentences than unattractive people (Dunn, 2000)
Example: In a 1980 study 73 defendants who had been rated on physical attractiveness went to trial. Results showed that the more attractive defendants received significantly lighter sentences (Stewart).
artiFacts (Dress, BelonGinGs, etc.) Material objects as an extension of oneself Clothing has the power to influence Change left in a phone booth was returned to well dressed people 77% of the time, poorly dressed people only 38% of the time Several studies show that fancy suits, uniforms and high-status clothing are related to higher rates of compliance. The situation governs appropriate dress
Vocalics (ParalanGuaGe) Use of voice to communicate includes elements such as pitch, rate, pauses, volume, tone of voice, silences, laughs, screams, sighs, etc.
Studies have found that people who talk louder, faster, and more fluently are more persuasive Deep voices are often viewed as more credible Powerless style of communication (pauses, umhs, uhs, tag questions) lowers perceptions of credibility
ENVIRONMENT What we surround ourselves with Example: The way we decorate our house tells others a lot about us
ENVIRONMENT Is OfTEN usEd TO INfluENcE NONVERbally Several researchers have found that supermarkets strategically place products Staples such as dairy, meat and produce are in the back or on opposite sides of the store, in order to force shoppers to meander through aisles where theyll be tempted to buy all kinds of other products
Childrens products are usually placed on lower shelves where they can easily be viewed Snack foods, which appeal to impulsive buyers are usually placed near check-out areas and at the end of isles where they are more likely to be snatched up (Field, 1996; Meyer, 1997: Tandingan, 2001)
IN cONclusION A knowledge of the several factors involved with nonverbal communication, and an awareness of its power will improve our ability to communicate with others.

Editor's Notes

  • #7: Personal space bubble Intimate (body to 18) In our personal space, only those who are really close to us trust Personal (18-4) implies intimacy Social (4-12) acquaintances, business Public (12 and beyond) public speaking Barrier behaviors = backing up, putting something between us, breaking eye contact Territory = geographical space belonging to us (your room, your bed, your apartment, etc.) We give more personal space and more territory to people with higher status/more power
