Four Distances depending on the type of encounter and the nature of the relationship RelationshipDistanceTypical Situation

Intimate Distance: 0-18 inches situations: Giving comfort or aid, whispering, conversing w/ close friends and family, kissing We are easily stimulated in this distance, but often easily uncomfortable. EX: personal space. Who do we let in it?

Personal Distance: 18 inches-4 feet Situations: Talking w/ friends or business associates, instructing in a sport, other students in class We’re mostly in this distance. If you decrease to intimate in this distance people feel uncomfortable, but if you increase your distance people feel rejected.

Social Distance: 4 ft - 12 ft Situations: Discussing impersonal or business matters w/ someone in authority, taking part in a small group discussion

Public Distance: 12 ft - 25 ft Situations: Public speaking, teaching a class, leading a pep rally, fans in the stands at a game, people waiting in a lobby Mostly with strangers we do not want to interact with

Conclusions Based on the four types of distances and their examples, what can you conclude about the correlation between the distance people have with you and what that might mean ? The closer the more they like you; the farther away the less personal.
