In my many years in the workforce, I have misinterpreted nonverbal communication once or twice. That has led me to misinterpret the message that was submitted by the other person. I am about to refer to a scenario that happened to me at work, that I believe shows poor nonverbal communication. I worked in a nuclear pharmacy. One of my numerous duties in the lab was to package medicine in a lead shielded cases to prepare for shipment to area hospitals. Now to prepare the doses for shipment the pharmacists prepared the doses in a lead shielded containment area. When they were done with a dose they would wait till I gave them our signal, which was to wave at them, then they pushed the doses to me. They would push the doses to me by a conveyor belt.

The scene I'm going to describe is from my guilty pleasure show Crazy Ex-Girlfriend. The main character Rebecca has used lots of nonverbal communication throughout the show. In a recent episode, her ex-boyfriend Trent returns and blackmails her into being his girlfriend again. He kept her in her apartment for a few days and then she finally convinces him to go to her office to meet her coworkers. There Rebecca uses nonverbal communication to let her coworker and friend Paula know she is in trouble.
"The body never lies." Martha Graham. Nonverbal communication is a sum of gestures, body movements, spatial messages, postures, facial expressions, touch or postures, which speak more than words filled up precise and comprehensive words with meanings.
Theoretically, under this circumstance, the expressions were adequately intense to communicate the correct emotional experience, but the procedure failed to make that experience salient. The directions for assessing facial expressions instructed participants to “indicate the intensity of the emotion.” Upon encountering the photographs during the procedure, it is possible that the wording of directions cued participants to appraise the expressions with a somewhat scientific mindset. Different results might be obtained by an experiment designed to more specifically create salience for the feeling and experience of the person in the picture instead of creating salience for the particular contortions of his or her face. One way to do this would be to change the wording of the directions to something such as, “How much has bullying hurt this person?” Other ways of creating salience for the actual person doing the expressing might be to use color photographs instead of black-and-white, and enlarging the printed image on the page. Ultimately, methodological designs to address this issue must be motivated by the notion that excitation can only be misattributed to a stimulus as that stimulus is conceived in consciousness. Therefore, the mental representation of the stimulus (picture of expression on paper vs. a person experiencing feelings) matters
In Business Communication for Success, Scott McLean described nonverbal communication as the process of conveying a message without the use of words. People say they can read my body language well. On the other hand, I have never been one to interpret a person’s body language. That was very evident when watching my character, Katie Otto, in “American Housewife.”
Non verbal behaviors are unintentional and can be interpreted by a different person with a different meaning. Verbal signals usually accompany by non verbal behaviors. These could be as easy as a shoulder shrug to head movements to eye contact. These behaviors tend to either confirm or even emphasize the meaning when speaking, Certain unintentional behaviors can even contradict what the message was suppose to mean. Quick example if I ask my wife if she can properly park her vehicle in a parallel parking manner she can say yes and shrug her shoulders giving me an indication that she isnt sure of her answer. There are many categories according to The Providers Guide to Quality and Culture of nonverbal communication. The categories are as follow;
The face serves as a primary medium for the exchange of nonverbal communication between people (Green,Williams, Davidson, 2003; Willis, Windsor, Lawson, Ridley, 2014). It has been widely accepted that facial expressions are not only used to indicate a current emotional state but also indicate certain social cues as well. For instance, a facial expression facilitating anger can not only relay information about mood but also tell the target decoding the facial expression to fix a current problem within the relationship or to stay weary of threat related issues within the environment (Fox, Lester, Russo, Bowles, Pichler, Dutton, 2000; Green et al., 2003; Willis et al.,
By definition nonverbal communication is generated by the speaker and the environment which communicates a potential message to the listener. The nonverbal message may not be intentional, meaning what is being communicated may not be under control of the sender. Usually these expressions are more pure in nature, and rarely are affected by what a person wants the listener to hear. Nonverbal communication comes from the body language, hand motions, or posture. Although this list is not comprehensive, it provides a general understanding of how complicated nonverbal communication can become. Despite there being countless modes by which people communicate nonverbally it is possible to make sense of the message. It becomes necessary for a speaker to learn how to use these different methods as it is a way to deliver a stronger message and engage their audience. The more methods a speaker uses to communicate a message the stronger the message becomes. A message reinforced by the nonverbal communication, this results in a deeper understanding. Lastly, a speaker needs to be able to read the body language of the audience. Is the audience confused or are they tracking the conversation. Being able to observe and adjust the communication pathway is important as it drives speak to higher understanding.
The nonverbal communication codes that I would use to respond to a “space invader” are proxemics, chronemics and kinesics. Using chronemics, I would rapidly start moving away from the “space invader”. This would also be a use of proxemics since I would be moving from intimate space to social space in the matter of seconds so the other person is aware of my discomfort. These nonverbal communicate let’s the other person know that I don’t feel comfortable since I need to make such sudden nonverbal actions. Using kinesics such facial expression that show discomfort may also communicate your thoughts and reaction to another person.
Nonverbal Communication Tips Nicole Schmidt Tara Lynn Schmidt Interpersonal Communications 103 Chelsa Budd DATE \@ "dddd, MMMM d, yyyy" Wednesday, November 8, 2017 Your nonverbal communication is a very important aspect when making a first impression. That’s the thing with a first impression, you don’t get a do-over. You want to be convincing of your confidence and know how during a job interview; as to why the employer should choose you, over anyone else. It’s important that the messages you send with body sync with the verbal message you send. If they do not match, then that is where you get confusion and miscommunication between people. Below is a list of ten effective nonverbal communication tips. Review them before your interview and you should do just fine! Eye contact: The amount of eye contact you use with the person you are speaking with will determine to them how interested or involved you are in the conversation. Eye contact is a huge part of nonverbal communication and social behavior. Eye contact can be a form of confidence, respect, and social communication. It’s important to remember that eye contact can be a sign of disrespect in some cultures, the opposite of what we are used to in North America. Facial Expression: The human face is very expressive when it comes to communicating nonverbally. Your face is able to express countless emotions and facial expressions without saying a word. The facial expressions for happiness, sadness, anger, surprise, fear, and disgust are the same across cultures. Facial expressions can be misread very easily without even knowing that its happening. Space (SPATIAL MESSAGES) This is the study of the way in which people use space to communicate varied meanings. We can examine this broad area by looking at the messages communicated by proxemics distance and territory. Intimate distance - this space would be from actual touching to 46cm (this distance is so close that people done usually do this in public. Personal distance - this space often ranges from 46 cm to 1.2 meters; this distance often referrers to the personal bubble, this defines your personal space. Social distance - this space often ranges from 1.2 to 3.6 meters; you lose the visual detail you have at
Nonverbal messages consist of cues we send out with our bodies. It is very interesting how as a society that breathes Social media, we can have any real interactions. Conversing is not as prevent as it used to be, if you look around you will see that the majority of people are either emailing texting or doing something online. I really cannot speak to tweeting or creating Instagram’s. I do not do either, and people assume it is because of my age. It is not, I just find it tedious how there is no interaction anymore. I see women walking down the street looking at their phones, not aware of anything going on around them. That is so dangerous, your nonverbal message is “am here” and allowing the bad guy to rob me or god forbid anything worse.
