Research Abstract

This study investigated the features of nonverbal behavior stypes in same-sex triadic interactions. 48 students who were not acquaint with each other, participated in either of the following two conditions; the cozy conversation, or the discussion about a social problem. The results suggested that the effects of nonverbal behaviors on impressions of interactants were different depending on types of conversation. Especially, smile was positively correlated with favorable impressions on the cozy conversation, while nodding showed the same tendency on the discussion. Furthermore, it was suggested the balanced gaze between other interactants brought favorable impressions and rapport.
The conversation style consists of the degree of "concluding the conversation ", "relaxing the mood", and to be "tense". 393 undergraduate students made a choice the hand movement about the cue of judge "concluding summarizing the conversation", the nodding or facial expressions about the cue of judge "relaxing the mood", and eye contact about the cue of judge to be "tense". When the relationship between participant's social skills and the commitment to the conversation are examined, the students revealing high social skills tend to perceive higher about the conversation style.
