I. Understanding Nonverbal Communication
NVC involves all those nonverbal stimuli in a communication setting that are generated by both the source and his / her use of the environment and that have potential message value for the source or receiver. (Samovar, 2000: 149)
“Something is a bit suspicious / odd here.”
Italy--- to say “Hello.” Indonesians, Malaysians, and some speakers of Arabic---it signals “Come here.”
“Oh, I forgot.” or an expression of surprise.
nonverbal communication in intercultural communication
Classifications of Nonverbal Communication
• 1. those that are primarily produced by the body (appearance, movement, facial expressions, eye contact, touch, smell, and paralanguage); • 2. those that the individual combines with the setting (space, time, and silence)
Nonverbal Communication
• • • • Ⅰ. General Appearance and Dress Ⅱ. Kinestics (身势学movements of body) Ⅲ. Paralanguage (副语言) Ⅳ. Space and Distance (spatial language or proxemics空间学) • Ⅴ. Time (temporal language or chronemics时间学) • Ⅵ. Silence
2. Complementing
• Complementing adds more information to messages. For example, you can tell someone that you are pleased with his or her performance, but this message takes on extra meaning if you pat the person on the shoulder at the same time. • Many writers in the area of nonverbal communication refer to this as a type of accenting because it accents the idea the speaker is trying to make.

Nonverbal Communication
非言语交际话语的影响力受说话方式的影响。
在讲话的时候,非言语交际是一个至关重要的因素,你可以在适当的场合使用适当的面部和身体动作。
设想你在参加一个晚会。
晚会期间你对周围的人有了种种印象。
艾伦看上去悠然自得,性情平和。
玛格丽特却是神经紧张,性格暴躁。
卡伦落落大方,直言快语;而埃米却是心存芥蒂,言辞含糊。
埃里克见到你很高兴,而马克则明显不是你是怎样得出这些结论的?令人吃惊的是,你得出这些结论并不是基于人们说了些什么话,而是由于他们以非言语方式,——即通过他们的姿势、手势,和面部表情所表达出来的东西。
假设你坐在马克旁边,他说,“这个晚会太棒了。
非常高兴今晚能和你在一起。
”然而,他的身体却微微挪到一边,并不断地看屋子对面的某个人。
不管他嘴上如何说,你知道那晚他并不高兴和你在一起。
在进行演讲时,类似的事情也往往发生。
下面一则故事讲的就是一个学生最初两次在教室里所作的演讲,以及每次演讲时他的非言语行为所产生的效果:丹·奥康纳的第一次演讲并不很成功。
尽管他事先选择了一个很有趣的话题,做过仔细的研究,并非常认真地练习过,他却没有考虑到非言语交际的重要性。
轮到他讲时,他的脸掠过惊恐的神色。
他像个死囚犯似的从椅子上站起来,步履沉缓地走上讲台,那样子像是走向断头台。
他说的相当不错,可演讲的同时他的那双手却自行其事。
他的手一会儿摆弄他的演讲稿,一会儿抚弄衬衫上的扣子,一会儿又在讲台上敲打。
整个演讲过程丹低着头,并不断地看表。
不管他嘴里在讲什么,他的身体在表明,“我可不想在这儿!”最后终于讲完了。
丹跑向他的座位,一下子瘫在位置上,如释重负的样子。
不用说,他的演讲不怎么成功。
幸运的是,人们指出他在非言语交际方面的问题时,丹认真地去改正。
他的下一次演讲就完全两样。
这次他从座位上站起来,迈着大步很自信地跨上讲台。
他控制着双手,集中注意力与听众进行目光接触。
这确实是个进步,因为丹和上次一样紧张。
不过,他发现自己越是显得自信,就越变得自信。

Clothing and bodily characteristics
• Muslin girls usually wear scarves(披肩) to cover their heads, and in most instance, “girls are not allowed to participate in swimming classes because of the prohibitions(禁令) against exposing their bodies.” Modesty (端庄) is highly valued among Arabs. • Perhaps nowhere in the world is the merger(联 合体) between attire (服装)and a culture’s value system more evident than in Japan. “The proclivity(倾向,癖性 ) for conservative dress styles and colors emphasizes the nation’s collectivism and, concomitantly(同时地), lessens the potential for social disharmony arising from nonconformist (不墨守成规的) attire.”

Our understanding of time falls under a class of nonverbal communication called chonemics.8.Culture shock(文化休克)It refers to the traumatic experience that an individual may encounter when entering a different culture.9.Prejudice (文化偏见)It refers to the irrational (非理性的) dislike, suspicion, or hatred of a particular group, race, religion, or sexual orientation.10.Euphemism(委婉语)It is taboo’s linguistic counterpart because it substitutes the offensive and disturbing vocabulary.petent CommunicationIt is interaction that is perceived as effective in fulfilling certain rewarding objectives and is also appropriate to the context in which the interaction occurs.1.Write your opinions about how your current educational setting embodies Chinese culturevalues?2.Summarize the stages of intercultural adaptation in your own words.(1)U-curve PatternHoneymoon Period:Crisis Period:Adjustment Period:Biculturalism Period:(2)W-curve PatternDescribe the process of reverse culture shock.3.Summarize the categories of nonverbal communication and explain what they are briefly.(1)Paralanguage:is the set of audible sounds that accompany oral language to augment its meaning.(2)Silence:is a form of nonverbal communication that may be interpreted in various ways depending upon the situation, the duration of the silence, and the culture.(3)Chronemics:is the study of how people perceive and use time.(4)Proxemics:refers to the perception and use of space, including territoriality (领地感) and personal space.

Culture penetrates into every aspect of our life and influence the way we think and behave.The Philippine women must have learned this way of mopping from their own culture. People may invent different ways for things even as simple as the issue of floor mopping.2、Why Don’t You Eat The Pizza?(12)This case can reflect the problems appearing during intercultural communication.Culture can greatly influence people’s belief, value, norm and social practice. Ignoring cultural differences can affect communication and cause problems.In Malaysia, where most people are Muslims, people think the left hand is used only for cleaning the body and thus it is dirty and cannot be used to pass food. Knowing nothing about the cultural difference, the American student puts himself in an embarrassing situation.3、Different Responses to Noise (16)This case can reflect different culture can give different influences on human sensation and perception.No two of people can assume that their sensations and perceptions are the same, especially when they come from different cultures. Different social reality and living conditions can equip them with different way to sense and perceive the world.In this case, the German professor and Japanese professor have very different response to the noise produced by the same motor for the heating system because of their cultures and living habits.4、Who is the most beautiful woman? (19)This case reflects that people from different cultures have interprete the same sentence “Who is the most beautiful woman at the reception?” differently.Fred is from western culture and his understanding of a beautiful woman focus on the looking only. While in Philippine where power distance is high, people pay more attention to social status, so Manuel thinks the maid should not be considered as a member of the reception.5、A Danish Woman in New York (21)This case can reflect assuming similarity instead of difference.Assuming similarities instead of difference refers to the idea that people coming from another culture are more similar to you than they actually are or that another person’s situation is more similar to yours than it in fact is. When communicating with people from another culture, one is likely to regard and treat people as “his people” and to assume there must be only one way of doing things: that is “his way”.In this case, the Danish woman assumes that her behavior of leaving the baby alone which is common in Denmark is also appropriate in New York. Here, she assumes what is suitable in her own culture is also indisputable in another culture. That is why the small conflict happens.6、Success Story (25)This case can reflect different communication styles----direct and indirect styles.The direct and indirect styles differ in the extent to which communicators reveal their intentions through their tone of voice and the straightforwardness of their message. In the direct verbal style, statements clearly reveal the speaker’s intentions. In the indirect verbal style, verbal statements tend to hide the speaker’s actual intention. The speaker’s verbal style reflects his or her cultural and personal value.In this case, Mary and Ms. Goshima had very different communication styles. Mary’s tended to be direct while Ms Goshima tended to be indirect. Mary was expecting a much more direct response to her question. Ms. Goshima, however, was uncomfortable with the question and felt her response should be very indirect and establish a proper sense of modesty before revealing the answer to the question. Thus came the communicative problem.7、Are Americans Indifferent? (33)This case can reflect the difference in kinesics(身势语), one of the categories of nonverbal communication, among cultures.The term kinesics refers to gestures, facial expressions, eye contact, body position, body movement, and forms of greeting and their relations to communication. Kinesics involves not only the actions but also the cultural interpretation of those actions in relation to the verbal communication uttered simultaneously.In this case, compared to most Chinese, Americans like to smile a lot and to have causal and rich facial expressions in their daily lives, even though they have some misfortune. Because of the different opinions about facial expressions in intercultural communication, the American lady talked about her father’s sickness and death in a smiling way to show she still has the optimistic way to treat the future life, which is misunderstood as being indifferent and selfish by the Chinese.8、Don’t Put Your Hand on My Arm(36)This case can reflect different cultures have different opinions to spatial relations.Different culture s have very different opinions about an individual’s unconsciously structuring the microspace immediately surrounding the physical body. Some cultures can have relatively close distance when communicating while other cultures cannot. Some western cultures consider body touch between people of the same gender to be cultural taboo and a symbol of being homosexual.In this case, Sam is from western cultures and knows the social taboo of body touch very clearly, so he wouldn’t let others misunderstand Martin’s close body distance and touch with him, even though Martin from Chile does not know the cultural taboo at all.9、Getting Frustrated (41)This case can reflect different norms in different cultures.Norms are the socially shared expectations of appropriate behaviors.In this case, much of the business done in Saudi Arabia depends on a middleman and having a middleman is a norm there. In addition, Saudis believe that God gave us multifunctional hands, and the left one and the right one have different functions. What is more, Saudis have a number of norms related to restricting male and female interactions. All these above make perfect sense to Saudis but not to Jay, an American businessman. Westerners’norms concerning these are totally different. Thus, Jay and Saudis had communicative problems.10、The Improvement Does Not Work(43)This case can reflect one of Kluckhohn and Strodtbeck’s value orientation----relational orientation.Relational orientation has three potential types: individualism, linearity and collaterality.In this case, following their individualistic orientations, Mr. Patterson and Mr. Wyman were perfectly comfortable with the idea of creating team leaders within the individual sales groups.However, as Park Young Sam mentions, doing so upset the harmony of the groups, which in turn led to poor performance. In the US, workers are often motivated by the opportunity for promotion and advancement as this serves the individualistic drive for individual achievement. In collectivistic cultures, however, workers may be motivated by being a part of a cohesive and productive team.11、When Shall We Meet for Dinner? (44)This case can reflect one of Hofstede’s value cultural dimensions----uncertainty avoidance.Uncertainty avoidance indicates to what extent a culture programs its members to feel either uncomfortable or comfortable in unstructured situations.In this case, Kelly and Keiko are interacting about a dinner invitation. Kelly, from the US, possesses a relatively low avoidance index, while Keiko, from Japan, comes from a culture with a relatively high avoidance index. Coming from a high uncertainty-avoidant culture, Keiko would prefer to plan ahead to avoid uncertainty and prepare her script for the evening. Kelly, on the other hand, is perfectly comfortable making plans based on how the evening progresses. Without a plan, how will Keiko know how to act?12、A Gift from a Chinese (48)This case can reflect that a rules for gift giving are very different from culture to culture.Chinese people love giving gifts. Usually, the value of the gift is an indication of how important the receiver is in the sender’s eyes. Most people giving gifts are concerned about whether the gift will be seen as valuable enough. An inexpensive gift means a loss of face. Dongxie may have a practical reason in giving the ginseng to his manager, but most Chinese will take it as something usual for a subordinate to do this to a manager out of a sign of respect.North American companies do occasionally receive gifts out of appreciation for the friendship and assistance the manager may provide. Such gifts are treasured; however, the value usually is fairly small, a bottle of wine, a music CD, a small book, or other tokens.13、R efuse to Be Treated (50)This case can reflect culture’s influence on the health care context.In the case just described, the U.S. American medical team system for making sense of the situation demanded that people be seen in order of the seriousness of their injuries or illness. Each person was considered as worthwhile as the next, and so seriousness of injury appeared to be a natural way to determine who was seen first.However, the cultural system working for those on the Virgin Islands demanded that elders be seen and treated first. Their position, age, and wisdom demanded respect. For younger members of the community to go ahead of them in a time of crisis was seen as extremely disrespectful.The conflict centered on efforts by each side to do what they perceived as good and morally responsible. Because the U.S. Americans were in a better position to adapt than an entire community that had just suffered great loss and were under extreme stress, it was good that they were willing to do so. Sadly, this is not always the case.14、Doubts (52)This case can reflect the problems one may encounter during intercultural adaptation. When an individual enters a new culture, he may first experience excitement. But later more serious problems may come to him. When facing these problems, one may fell anxious and not know how to deal with the present situation.In this case, Wu Lian not only encounter language problem, and he also faces a lot of learning difficulties due to cultural differences. And besides, he also meets many difficulties in daily life. All these make him feel uncomfortable and stressed.The only way out for him is to learn more knowledge and skills to conquer these hindrances and become successful in intercultural adaptation.15、Missing China (55)This case can reflect reverse culture shock.When people return home after an extended stay in a foreign culture, they experience another round of culture shock in their native culture and they must proceed through the four stages of the U-curve pattern once again.In this case, John, whose comes from Canada, has been living in China for quite a long time and he has got familiar with the Chinese culture. Therefore, when he returns to Canada, he cannot adapt well to his native culture.。

经典:Nonverbal-Communication-非语言交际
美国人问候时要握手,阿拉伯人文化时要亲吻双颊,日 本人问候时要鞠躬,墨西哥人则要常常相互拥抱。土耳 其人认为摸一下耳朵可使人免受凶眼的伤害;在意大利 南部,这种手势却用来嘲笑懦弱无能;在印度,这又是 自责或真诚的表示。在大多数远东或中东国家,用拇指 指人是不礼貌的。在泰国,示意某人走过来,需要某人 走过来,需要手掌向下,手指前后移动,而在美国,让 人过来则手掌向上,手指向自己移动;在越南,美国这 种手掌向上的手势只用来唤狗。汤加人在长辈面前应该 走下,而在西方晚辈应该站在。在美国,双腿交叉而坐 表示放松;在朝鲜,这是社交禁忌。在日本,交换礼物 要用双手;穆斯林则视左手不洁,不用左手吃东西或传 递物品。佛教认为,人在沉默时能大彻大悟,美国人认 为交谈出真挚。
大多数美国人认为,壳应该是完美无瑕的。许多人意识到,由 性别、衣服样式、种族、年龄、民族、身份、体形、情绪等外 化出来的表象来反映某人的基本特征。研究表明:在美国,肥 胖者收入低,结婚率低,受教育程度低。我们根据一个人的魅 力、着装以及个人小饰品对其“知识、性别、年龄、亲和力、 财政状况、阶层、品味、价值观和文化背景等”。魅力迷恋在 文化中已根深蒂固,即便小孩也更愿意选择与漂亮的小朋友为 伴。
大多数非语言交际具有普遍性,但是许多非语言行为都 是文化潜移默化的结果。

Act out the following ideas:⏹Me?⏹Stop.⏹No.⏹Come here.⏹I‟m full.⏹It‟s smelly here.⏹I don‟t know.⏹Go away.⏹I can‟t hear it.⏹I am surprised.⏹We share a secret.⏹Everything is fine.⏹I‟m warning you.⏹I feel embarrassed.⏹I cannot believe this nonsense.⏹Oops, I forgot it.1. Repeating: using verbal message to repeat a point one tries to make.⏹ e.g. knocking the table while saying, “silence, please.”2. Complementing: closely related to repeating. Although messages that repeat can stand alone, complementing generally adds more information to messages.⏹ e.g. Smiling and saying, “Welcome!”3. conveying: convey our emotions and our attitudes towards the people we are communicating with.4. Substituting: we use substitution in nonverbal communication when we perform some action instead of speaking.5. Regulating: we often regulate and manage communication by using some form of nonverbal behavior. Our nonverbal behavior helps us control the situation.6. Contradicting: on some occasions, our nonverbal actions send signals opposite from the literal meanings contained in our verbal messages.1.1 Body Language⏹Body language refers to all nonverbal codes which are associated with body movements.⏹Body language includes gestures, head movements, facial expressions, eye behaviors, postures and other displays that can be used to communicate.(1) General Appearance and DressConcern with how one appears is universal.We make inferences (often faulty) about another‟s “intelligence, gender, age, approachability, financial well-being, class, tastes, values, and cultural background” from attractiveness, dress, and personal artifacts.⏹“By the husk you may judge the nut.”⏹“Clothes make the man.”⏹“Do not judge a book according to its cover.”⏹Hairstyle, lipstick, figure, etc.⏹overweight⏹Definition of beauty in different culturesDress tradition: material, style, and color⏹Dress of different cultures⏹Wedding dress(2) Gestures⏹Do you know what the following gestures means?Number 1 is used together with the verbal message “Let‟s keep our fingers crossed” in the United States, England, and Sweden to mean that the person is hoping for good luck. But in Greece and Turkey it means the breaking of a friendship, and in parts of Italy it means “O.K.”.Number 2 is normally used when talking privately about a third person, meaning that person is crazy, often in a joking way.Finger(1)⏹In the United States, the index finger is used to point to objects and even at people.⏹Germans point with the little finger⏹Japanese point with the entire hand, palms up⏹In much of Asia, pointing with the index finger is considered rudeFinger(2)⏹“cross one's fingers”⏹keep one…s fingers crossed。
