Different Aspects of Intercultural Nonverbal Communication: a Study
CPUH-Research Journal: 2016, 1(1), 17-24 ISSN (Online): 2455-6076 http://www.cpuh.in/academics/academic_journals.php Different Aspects of Intercultural Nonverbal Communication: A Study Saurabh Kaushal 1School of Humanities & Management Sciences, Career Point University, Hamirpur (HP) INDIA E-mail: [email protected] (Received 05 July, 2015; Accepted 18 July, 2015; Published 03 Mar, 2016) ABSTRACT: Communication is a dynamic and wide process with its ever changing roles of sending and receiving information, ideas, emotions and the working of mind. Communication is not only a word but a term in itself with multiple interpretations. Out of a number of forms, there are two very important kinds of communication, verbal and non-verbal and the relation between them is inseparable. Non-verbal communication keeps the major portion of the periphery occupied and in absence of it communication can never happen. In the era of caveman, just using nonverbal communication could help to understand the other person, but in the complex society of today both ver- bal and non-verbal forms of communication are needed to fully understand each other. We start taking lessons in nonverbal communication from the very starting of our life from parents and the society in which we are surviving. There is a very common perception among people that for understanding any oral message we have to concentrate and subsequently be able to understand the nonverbal elements, but in reality nonverbal communication is not as easy to understand as it seems to be. Often it is misinterpreted and because of that wrong message is understood by the receiver. -

The Importance of Non-Verbal Communication
The Importance of Non-Verbal Communication We tend to be less aware of the nonverbal accompaniment to much of what we say than we are to the actual words we speak. We often carefully monitor and edit our words to achieve the desired effect, but how we are saying them as likely more important. Being mindful of our non-verbal communication can prevent the wrong or unintended message from inadvertently being passed on. Face-to-face communication allows for the most richness in non-verbal communication; this richness recedes from our interactions as we move from telephone conversations to e-mail, memos, bulletins and post-it notes. These forms of communication, however, still require that we pay significant attention to elements of our messages that could lead to unintended interpretations. Overall, communication consists of: Body Language 55% Paralanguage (tone, volume) 38% Verbal Content 7% Non-Verbal Communication can… - Repeat the verbal message (point in a direction while stating directions) o Accent a verbal message. (verbal tone indicates the actual meaning of the specific words) o Complement the verbal message (a nod reinforces a positive message (among Americans); o Contradict the verbal message (saying something is true while avoiding eye contact or nervously fidgeting) o Regulate interactions (touching someone’s arm to signal that you want to talk next) o Substitute for the verbal message (especially if it is blocked by noise, interruption; nodding instead of saying yes. o Change the meaning of words (e.g. saying “Okay” as a scream -

BAMBACH has been approved for the School of Film and the College of Fine Arts by Ofer Eliaz Assistant Professor of Film Elizabeth Sayrs Interim Dean, College of Fine Arts 3 ABSTRACT BAMBACH, NICHOLAS D., M.A., August 2016, Film In the Company of Modern Men: Representations of Masculinity in Contemporary Hollywood Comedies Director of Thesis: Ofer Eliaz This thesis discusses the increasing visibility of masculine identity in contemporary Hollywood comedies. I examine how shifting developments in economic, societal, cultural, and gender relations impacted the perception of cinematic masculinity. The men, more specifically white and heterosexual, in these films position themselves as victims and, as a result, turn to alternative outlets to ease their frustrations and anxieties. In order to broadly survey the genre of the past two decades, I focus on three consistently popular character tropes in Hollywood comedies: slackers, office workers, and bromantic friendships. All the male characters discussed throughout the thesis are plagued by their innermost anxieties and desires that compromise their gendered identities. However, these films resort to a regressive understanding of masculinity and functions within the dominant heteronormative structures. This thesis demonstrates how Hollywood comedies present a contradictory and multifaceted image of modern masculinity. -

Understanding the Non Verbal Components of Cross Cultural Communication: a Perspective of Soft Skills
International Journal of Humanities and Social Science Invention ISSN (Online): 2319 – 7722, ISSN (Print): 2319 – 7714 www.ijhssi.org ||Volume 6 Issue 9||September. 2017 || PP.82-88 Understanding the Non Verbal components of Cross Cultural Communication: A perspective of Soft skills. Ms. Mitashree Tripathy1 Assistant Professor, Dept. of Humanities, Orissa Engineering College, Bhubaneswar, Odisha, India, [email protected] Abstract: Communication is the core factor of cross cultural contact which embodies language ability and awareness of cultural differences. Dexterity in cultural interactions requires knowledge and skills in terms of accepted conduct in a particular cultural context. Hence, cross-cultural diffusion demands understanding and accepting of social conventions. Although cross cultural communication is indispensable, individuals face problems in understanding and accepting cultural differences. Cultural differences arise not only in food habits, dressing style and social customs but also in non verbal components like body language, punctuality, speech pattern, eye contact and many more. Encompassed in an environment where non verbal communication differs greatly from culture to culture, not accepting the differences apparently cause embarrassments, disappointments and misunderstandings sometimes resulting in conflicts. This paper emphasizes on the various aspects of nonverbal communication while communicating cross culturally and apparently learning and accepting cultural differences making it one of the essential -

Asian Social Science January, 2010 Factors Influencing Media Choice for Interact with Their Students among Lectures of Two Academic Institutions: Case of Iran Dr. Abbas Ghanbari Baghestan (Corresponding author) Department of Communication, Universiti Putra Malaysia Po box 43400, Serdang, Selongor, Malaysia Tel: 60-1-2274-8576 E-mail: [email protected] Muhammad Rahmati Sociology, Shahed University, Iran E-mail: [email protected] Musa Abu Hassan Department of Communication, Universiti Putra Malaysia Po box 43400, Serdang, Selongor, Malaysia E-mail: [email protected] Abstract The aim of this paper is to report the findings on the impact of communication technology as channels on interaction between academic staff and their students, conducted at an Iranian higher learning institution. Study focused on media choice and it attempted to determine the communication channels most used by academic staffs in interacting with their students and the reasons they chose these channels. It also intended to find out whether there was a significant relationship between communication channels most used by academic staffs and their perception of media richness. The results revealed that though there is the existence of new communication technologies such as the internet which offers faster and cheaper facilities, Face-to-Face communication is the most used and preferred communication channel by academic staffs in interacting with their students. In addition there was significant relationship between communication channel most used by respondents and their perception of media richness and social presence. That’s why with the higher level of social presence, their level of experience with a channel increases. The findings of this study extend two of the most widely investigated media choice theories: Media Richness Theory (MRT) and Social Presence Theory (SPT). -

Sino-US English Teaching, January 2017, Vol. 14, No. 1, 55-59 doi:10.17265/1539-8072/2017.01.008 D DAVID PUBLISHING A Study on Pragmatic Failures in Nonverbal Communication in Intercultural Communicative Context GUO Zi-rui Ningbo Dahongying University, Ningbo, China In the intercultural communication, people often ignore the nonverbal behavior when they talk to others. With the raid progress of modern traffic and tools of communication, people’s contacts have become increasingly frequent with different regions and countries. The research on pragmatic failures in nonverbal communication allows people to understand its nature and eliminate some unnecessary misunderstanding. This paper aims at finding out the root causes about pragmatic failures in nonverbal communication in the intercultural communication, and providing several sensible recommendations. Keywords: intercultural communication, nonverbal communication, pragmatic failures Introduction Intercultural communicative refers to the communication between people from different cultural backgrounds, which is carried out by verbal behaviors and nonverbal behaviors. In the intercultural communication, people not only have verbal behaviors but also nonverbal behaviors of rich content. Nonverbal communication is a kind of stimulation which is brought about by human and environmental instead of verbal behavior in the communicative context. These stimulations have promising potential value and significance for message sender and recipient. Like verbal communication, nonverbal communication is also an instrument of interaction for people to send information, exchange ideas, and express emotion, which have special functions. According to statistics, more than 65% of language information is expressed by nonverbal forms. In addition, in intercultural communication, it is common to occur on pragmatic failures in nonverbal communication, because of different cultures. -
