signs capable of stimulating meaning in another person. For example, there are 23 distinct eyebrow movements,

each capable of stimulating a different meaning.

Humans express attitudes toward themselves vividly through body movements and postures. Body movements

express true messages about feelings that cannot be masked. Because such avenues of communication are visual,

they travel much farther than spoken words and are unaffected by the presence of noise that interrupt, or cancels

out speech.

People communicate by the way they walk, stand, and sit. We tend to be more relaxed with friends or when

addressing those of lower status. Body orientation also indicates status or liking of the other individual. More

direct orientation is related to a more positive attitude.

Body movements and postures alone have no exact meaning, but they can greatly support or reject the spoken

word. If these two means of communication are dichotomized and contradict each other, some result will be a

disordered image and most often the nonverbal will dominate.
