Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Often defined as communication without words, non-verbal communication (NVC) refers to all aspects of a message which are not conveyed by the literal meaning of words. Both written and spoken communication can be nonverbal. The main types of NVC are chronemics, kinesics, paralinguistics, proxemics and semiotics. Culture, gender and social status influence non-verbal communication. NVC also includes object communication and haptics or touch. Paralinguistic mechanisms include intonation, stress, rate of speech, and pauses or hesitations; non-linguistic behaviours include gestures, facial expressions, and body language, among others. This book brings forth new and important research in this field.

Book Applications of Nonverbal Behavioral Theories and Research

Download or read book Applications of Nonverbal Behavioral Theories and Research written by Robert S. Feldman and published by Psychology Press. This book was released on 2014-02-25 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is intended to accomplish several goals. First, it is designed to provide a broad overview of the major areas of application of theory and research relating to nonverbal behavior. Second, individual chapters emphasize how the applications have been drawn from underlying theories and empirical bases, thereby making the link between theory, research, and applications apparent. Finally, the volume links individual chapter contributions, demonstrating how theoretical progress over the last few decades has led to important applied advances. The contributors to this book consider a wide variety of settings and topics. Their common thread, however, is a shared conviction that an understanding of nonverbal behavior can bring about an improvement in the human condition. Each of the authors has made suggestions regarding future directions for both research and practice -- and their ideas offer real promise.

Book Nonverbal Communication

Download or read book Nonverbal Communication written by Celia D. Park and published by Nova Science Publishers. This book was released on 2017 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Non-verbal communication between healthcare providers and recipients are mutually constructed, culturally intricate, contextually dependent, and socially affective. In healthcare settings, both patients and physicians use nonverbal communication (eg: paralinguistic, kinesic, and proxemic cues) to convey their thoughts apart from verbal questions and answers, with the former describing their medical history and health issues and the latter providing medical advice and helpful treatment plans. Chapter One examines the unique role intercultural nonverbal communication plays in healthcare settings. In Chapter Two, patients with anorexia nervosa were studied in terms of whether specific interactive relationship patterns could be observed through nonverbal interactive behavior and, in particular, the facial expressions of emotions. Chapter Three covers the importance of nonverbal interactions of veterinary authorities in emergency exercise and random controls at public health borders. Chapter Four surveyed how the action of putting away one's mobile phone is interpreted as a form of nonverbal communication.

Book Fundamentals of Verbal and Nonverbal Communication and the Biometric Issue

Download or read book Fundamentals of Verbal and Nonverbal Communication and the Biometric Issue written by A. Esposito and published by IOS Press. This book was released on 2007-05-22 with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The main theme of this publication is the fundamental features of verbal and nonverbal communication and their relationships with the identification of a person, his/her socio-cultural background and personal traits. The problem of understanding human behaviour in terms of personal traits, and the possibility of an algorithmic implementation that exploits personal traits to identify a person unambiguously, are among the great challenges of modern science and technology. On the one hand, there is the theoretical question of what makes each individual unique among all others that share similar traits, and what makes a culture unique among various cultures. On the other hand, there is the technological need to be able to protect people from individual disturbance and dangerous behaviour that could damage an entire community. As regards to the problem of understanding human behaviour, one of the most interesting research areas is that related to human interaction and face-to-face communication. It is in this context that knowledge is shared and personal traits acquire their significance.

Book On Moving and Being Moved

Download or read book On Moving and Being Moved written by Frances La Barre and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-05-13 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every sensitive therapist intuits the wealth of meaning that resides in nonverbal behavior. Yet, trained as they are to discern and communicate verbal insights, few therapists have a clear idea of how to tap that stream of meaning. In On Moving and Being Moved, Frances La Barre remedies this situation in an intellectually broadening and clinically exciting manner. Drawing on an extensive research literature on movement and nonverbal behavior, her background as a dancer, and her extensive analytic experience, she seeks to enhance our perception of movement and our understanding of its role in therapeutic communication. La Barre anchors her contribution in a thorough-going review of both analytic and nonanalytic sources as they bear on clinical issues. Conversant with the language of posture-gesture mergers, of kines and context analysis, and of body attitudes and self-directed touching, she spans the research literatures of all relevant disciplines, from anthropology to developmental psychology to ethology, from studies of temperament to cross-cultural comparisons of interactive rhythms. Turning to the psychoanalytic domain, she begins by considering the traditionally peripheral role of the body that derived from Freud's own belief that action was often an obstacle to verbal understanding. With the advent of the contemporary relational perspective, she holds, the stage is set for a deeper understanding of nonverbal behavior both as a source of meaning and as a ubiquitous shaper of therapeutic communication. For the clinician, On Moving and Being Moved is a wonderfully informative introduction to the realm of the nonverbal that succeeds both as a reference work and as a pivotal contribution to the theory of therapy. La Barre goes on to illuminate the manner in which analytic and nonanalytic insights can be integrated into a flexible yet disciplined approach that restores nonverbal behavior to its rightful place in the "talking cure."
