Research in Nonverbal Behavior

Research in nonverbal behavior studies how people communicate through actions rather than words, such as gestures, facial expressions, posture, and eye contact. It helps reveal feelings, attitudes, or intentions that may not be spoken aloud and enhances understanding of interpersonal dynamics. This research uses observation, experiments, and technology to analyze these cues in various contexts like social interactions, negotiations, and therapy. Understanding nonverbal behavior is valuable for improving communication skills, building relationships, and gaining insight into unspoken messages that influence human interactions.
