    TYPES OF NONVERBAL
    COMMUNICATION

    NICOLE JADE PATRICE L. NAVARRO


    I- BSED MAJOR IN FILIPINO
    When we dress formally for a meeting, smile at someone, sit in
    a specific seat in class, use your hands while talking, play with
    a pen or pencil while listening to a lecture, dim the lights to
    create a romantic atmosphere, play music loudly, look
    someone directly in the eyes, or burn incense to create a
    pleasant odor, you are communicating nonverbally. Everyday,
    we perform a wide range of nonverbal behaviors without even
    thinking about them, yet such behaviors can convey definite
    messages to others. Because nonverbal communication is
    diverse, complex, common and informative, we need to be
    sensitive to its many manifestations.
    NONVERBAL
    COMMUNICATION
    is the process of sending and
    receiving messages without
    using words, either spoken or
    written.
    Nonverbal communication
    includes tone of voice, facial
    expressions, posture, gestures,
    and appearances, all of which
    are used to communicate
    messages.
    SIGNIFICANT FORMS OF
    NONVERBAL COMMUNICATION
    Kinesis (body
    movements including
    gestures, facial
    expressions, and
    eye behavior),
    physical characteristics,
    haptics (touch),
    proxemics (space)
    chronemics(time),
    vocalics/paralanguage
    (use of voice),
    silence,
    olfactics (odors)
    artifacts and
    environments.
    Facial Expressions and Body Movements
    We use body movements- gestures, facial
    expressions, and eye behavior- to create an
    infinite number of nonverbal messages.

    kinesics
    is the non-verbal behavior related to movement, either of any
    part of the body, or the body as a whole.
    Kinesics is sometimes referred to as "body language"
    CATEGORIES OF
    KINESICS
    - EYE BEHAVIOR
    - FACIAL EXPRESSION
    Eye behavior
    is a sub- category of facial expressions that includes any
    movement or behavior of the eyes .
    It is also referred to as "oculesics" which is the study of eye
    movement or eye behavior.

    Facial expressions
    Include configurations of the face that can reflect,
    augment, contradict, or appear unrelated to a speaker's
    spoken message.
    SIX
    COMMUNICATIVE
    FUNCTION OF EYE
    BEHAVIOR
    SIX COMMUNICATIVE
    FUNCTIONS OF EYE BEHAVIOR
    1. Influence attitude change and
    persuasion;
    2. Indicate degree of attentiveness,
    interest;
    3. Express emotions;
    4. Regulate interaction;
    5. Indicate power and status;
    6. Form impressions on others.
    Eye gaze at the interpersonal level communicates
    sincerity, trutworthiness, and friendliness. Romantic
    partners are more like to gaze into each other's eye
    for prolonged periods when expressing thier
    affection for one another.

    Eye contact is also important for those


    of us who are listeners because
    looking at the speaker indicates our
    interest in what is being said and is a
    sign of respect for the speaker.
    Have you ever had a conversation with someone who was
    wearing dark glasses? If you have, you know that it is a bit
    uncomfortable because you can't completely see how the other
    person is reacting to you.

    We do learn much about other's feelings and emotions from their


    eyes. example, we associate a high level of gaze or indirect eye
    contact from another as a sign of liking or friendliness. In
    contrast, if others avoid making eye contact with us, we are likely
    to conclude that they are unfriendly, don't like us, or are simply
    shy. Although a high level of eye contact can be interpreted as
    positive, there are some exceptions to this rule. If people look at
    us continuously and maintain the eye contact regardless of
    actions we take, they are said to be staring. Generally, people find
    being stared at an unpleasant experience; it makes most of us
    nervous and tense.
    Facial Expressions
    Facial expressions are windows to our emotions. They
    provide clues about our emotional states, which at times
    can be very complex and difficult to interpret accurately.

    More than two thousand years ago, the Roman orator


    Cicero stated, "The face is the image of the soul."

    Facial expressions have an extremely powerful role in


    communication and relationships. Of all the body
    language, facial expressions convey the most
    information. We also make judgments about personality,
    such as the tendency to be friendly or unfriendly, harsh
    or kind, based on facial expressions. We perceive people
    who have relaxed facial expressions as having more
    power and being more in control than people whose
    facial expressions seem nervous.
    Body Movements
    is the voluntary or involuntary movement of parts of the body such
    as hands, feet, legs, and shoulders, which may either reinforce or
    contradicts what is communicated verbally.

    Posture
    Posture communicates a great deal of information
    about you. The way in which you sit, stand, slump
    or slouch provides information about your sex,
    status, self-image, attitudes and emotional state.

    Body movements and posture can reveal


    much about our physical states (vigor, age).
    BODY MOTIONS
    ARE DIVIDED INTO
    FIVE CATEGORIES
    1. Emblems
    Translate directly into words and are
    used for specific words or phrases
    Meanings of emblems are like those of
    words - arbitrary, changeable with time,
    learned, and culturally determined.

    Example:
    A hitchhiker's extended thumb, the
    thumb and circle sign for "Ok," the
    peace sign.
    2. Illustrators
    Accent, reinforce, or
    emphasize a verbal
    message.
    Example:
    A child holding up his hands to indicate
    how tall he is while saying "I'm a big boy";
    an instructor underlining a word on a
    white board emphasize it.
    3. Regulators
    Control, monitor or maintain interaction
    between or among speakers and listeners.
    Cues that tell us when to stop, continue,
    hurry. elaborate, make things more
    interesting, or let someone else speak.

    Example:
    Eye contact, shift in posture, nod
    of the head, looking at a clock or
    wristwatch.
    4. Affect displays
    Body movements that express
    emotions. Though your face is the
    primary means of displaying affect,
    your body may also be used.

    Example:
    Sad face, slouching, jumping
    up and down.
    5. Adaptors
    Help one feel at ease in
    communication situations, difficult to
    interpret and require the most
    speculation.

    Example:
    Scratching, smoothing hair, playing
    with coins, smoking, moving closer to
    someone.
