Chapter 3: Social Perception and Understanding Others


1. Nonverbal Communication:

Nonverbal communication the basic channels:

There are 5 channels of non verbal communication:
1. Facial expressions.
2. Eye contact.
3. Body movement.
4. Posture.
5. Touching. Human feelings and emotions r often reflected
Unmasking the face; facial expressions and clues to others’ emotions: on the face and can b read in specific
expressions.
5 diff emotions are represented clearly on ppl faces even from early age:
1. Anger Don’t happen alone,
2. Fear can be combinations
3. Happiness of diff emotions.
4. Sadness
5. Disgust
Are facial expressions universal?
Research suggests yes- certain emotions occur naturally like happiness and sadness and promotes the same
facial reactions over cultures.

Gazes and stares: eye contact as a nonverbal cue:

 Generally lots of eye contact suggests liking between people except when in complete excess
 Staring: could be sign of anger, dislike or hostility. (2 avoid road rage avoid eye contact)

Body language; gestures, posture and movement:

 Body language can provide NB info about others
 Body language reveals emotional state
 More specific info about others feelings is provided by gestures
 Emblems: body movements carrying specific meaning in a given culture.
 Specific gestures can have diff meaning for men and women.

Touching:

 Depending on a few factors (where, how) touch can suggest affection, sexual interest, dominance,
caring, aggression.
 When touching is appropriate it can produce pos feelings.
 Handshake acceptable way to touch which suggests allot about ppl

Deception: recognizing it through nonverbal cues and its effect on social relations:

Why do people lie: avoid hurting others, conceal real feelings, avoid punishment etc?
 We can rarely know if ppl are lying b/c we tend to c others as truthful, try to b polite not look for lies,
 To detect lying must pay careful attention to both verbal and non verbal cues.
 The following is helpful:

Micro expression  Fleeing facial expressions lasting only tenths of seconds
 Appear on face quickly after event and can be indicator of persons
feelings or emotions If u see 1 expression followed quickly by another
could be indication of LIE
Interchannel discrepancies  Inconsistencies between nonverbal cues from diff basic channels
 Result from fact that ppl who are lying cant control all channels at once
 Person might hide facial expression but not make eye contact.
Eye contact  Ppl lying blink often, pupils more dilated, low level of eye contact or very
high one.
Exaggerated facial expression  Smile more, greater sorrow in situation.
