Social Perception

Non-verbal communication How people communicate, intentionally or unintentionally, without words – Facial expression – Tone of voice – Hand gestures – Body position/posture – Touch – Eye gaze Functions of NVC – Express emotion – Conveying attitudes – Communicating one’s personality traits – Facilitating verbal communication

Popularity of NVC in “pop- psychology”

Does NVC vary across cultures? Yes, in two respects 1. Emblems—gestures of hand and arms 2. display rules

One area in which NVC does not vary across cultures: facial expression of emotion Charles Darwin: The expression of emotions in man and animals (1872) – Concluded that NVC of emotional were species-specific, not cultural-specific

factors that can decrease accuracy in face perception Intentional efforts to conceal emotions – Richards & Gross (1999) Consequences Display rules Affect blends/ambiguity

Gender and NVC Women more accurate at detecting NVC when the person is telling the truth – One exception to this rule: detection of lying Theoretical explanation – Social role theory (Eagly, 1987) – Two sources of converging evidence Cross-cultural work (Hall, 1978) Experimental research (Snodgrass, 1985, 1992)

Snodgrass, 1985 males and females assigned to superior (boss) vs. inferior (employee) roles Four type of dyads DV: accuracy in reading partner’s emotions Results: – Gender makes absolutely no difference! – All driven by role: employee always more accurate than boss – Converges on non-laboratory approach by Hall (1978)
