Proxemics
Proxemics involves the study of interpersonal interactions
These interactions are viewed in a spatial context, defined by
four “zones”
The behavior is considered to be largely learned or culturally
determined rather than innate biological or physiological processes.
![Page 8: Chapter 4 (types of non verbal communication)](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022012403/5561a83bd8b42ae9708b4e7e/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)

Personal space is the distance we try to maintain when we interact with other people.
PERSONAL SPACE

four levels of social distance that occur in different situations:
![Page 11: Chapter 4 (types of non verbal communication)](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022012403/5561a83bd8b42ae9708b4e7e/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Intimate distance - 6 to 18 inches: This level of physical distance often indicates a closer relationship or greater comfort between individuals.

Personal distance - 1.5 to 4 feet: Physical distance at this level usually occurs between people who are family
members or close friends.The closer the people can comfortably stand while interacting can be an
indicator of the intimacy of the relationship.
![Page 13: Chapter 4 (types of non verbal communication)](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022012403/5561a83bd8b42ae9708b4e7e/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Social distance - 4 to 12 feet This level of physical distance is often used with individuals who are
acquaintances.
a co-worker you see several times a week, you might feel more comfortable
interacting at a closer distance.

Personal distance of individuals can vary from culture to culture.
E.g: People from Latin countries tend to feel more comfortable standing closer to one another as they interact, while those from North America
need more personal distance.

IN ELEVATOR
![Page 17: Chapter 4 (types of non verbal communication)](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022012403/5561a83bd8b42ae9708b4e7e/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Where do people stand when there are only two or three people?
If there are only two or three people on an elevator, each person usually leans against the walls.
![Page 18: Chapter 4 (types of non verbal communication)](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022012403/5561a83bd8b42ae9708b4e7e/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
What happens when the elevator becomes more crowded and there are now four or more people?
Everyone turns to face the door. Hands, purses, and briefcases hang down in front of the body.
People usually scrunch up, rounding their shoulders,
so that they take up as little space as possible.
![Page 19: Chapter 4 (types of non verbal communication)](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022012403/5561a83bd8b42ae9708b4e7e/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
How close will people stand? What is allowed to "touch” ?
People don’t touch each other in any way unless the elevator
becomes very crowded, and then they only touch at the shoulders
or upper arms. If you see an overcrowded elevator, you will probably choose to wait for
the next one.
![Page 20: Chapter 4 (types of non verbal communication)](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022012403/5561a83bd8b42ae9708b4e7e/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
What do people look at in a crowded elevator?
Everyone usually looks at the floor indicator located above the door.
![Page 21: Chapter 4 (types of non verbal communication)](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022012403/5561a83bd8b42ae9708b4e7e/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
When is it permissible to talk to the other people?
People who do know each other will usually speak softly. When a
group of people enter the elevator and do not follow these rules, other occupants usually feel
very uncomfortable.

Physical space
Physical space is the part of the physical environment over which we exert control.
![Page 25: Chapter 4 (types of non verbal communication)](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022012403/5561a83bd8b42ae9708b4e7e/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Ownership of space
Sometimes we do not realize the ways we claim space as our own; in other instances, we go to
great lengths to visibly “mark” our territory.
![Page 26: Chapter 4 (types of non verbal communication)](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022012403/5561a83bd8b42ae9708b4e7e/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)

Peter is violating what Ann has marked as her territory
![Page 28: Chapter 4 (types of non verbal communication)](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022012403/5561a83bd8b42ae9708b4e7e/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
If you regularly take the same seat in a class, that habit becomes a type of marker, signaling to others that a particular seat location is yours.
Other students will often leave that seat empty because they have perceived it as yours.
![Page 29: Chapter 4 (types of non verbal communication)](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022012403/5561a83bd8b42ae9708b4e7e/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Personal status
We also can understand a person’s status in a group by noting where the person sits and the
amount of space over which ownership is claimed.
![Page 30: Chapter 4 (types of non verbal communication)](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022012403/5561a83bd8b42ae9708b4e7e/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
E.g. In a well-established group, people with differing opinions will often choose to sit on opposite sides of
the table, while allies will sit in adjacent spots.
![Page 31: Chapter 4 (types of non verbal communication)](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022012403/5561a83bd8b42ae9708b4e7e/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
ARTIFACTS
Presenter : Hữu Lộc
![Page 32: Chapter 4 (types of non verbal communication)](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022012403/5561a83bd8b42ae9708b4e7e/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Artifacts are the objects and possessions we use to decorate the physical space we control.
When others enter our space, they look around and notice what objects we choose to place in the space and how we arrange them. Then they assign meaning to what they see.
![Page 33: Chapter 4 (types of non verbal communication)](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022012403/5561a83bd8b42ae9708b4e7e/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
FOR EXAMPLE
Katie visited her boyfriend, Peter, at school, the first thing she noticed was a picture on his bulletin board of him hugging a cute woman she did not recognize.
![Page 34: Chapter 4 (types of non verbal communication)](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022012403/5561a83bd8b42ae9708b4e7e/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
The second thing she noticed was that the picture she had given him of her before he left for school was nowhere to be found.From this, she concluded that Peter wasn’t honoring his promise not to see anyone at school.
![Page 35: Chapter 4 (types of non verbal communication)](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022012403/5561a83bd8b42ae9708b4e7e/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
The way we arrange the artifacts in our space also can nonverbally communicate to others.
Professors and businesspeople have learned that by choosing and arranging the artifacts in their space, they can influence interactions.
![Page 36: Chapter 4 (types of non verbal communication)](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022012403/5561a83bd8b42ae9708b4e7e/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
![Page 37: Chapter 4 (types of non verbal communication)](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022012403/5561a83bd8b42ae9708b4e7e/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
![Page 38: Chapter 4 (types of non verbal communication)](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022012403/5561a83bd8b42ae9708b4e7e/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
People choose artifacts not just for their function but also for the message that the objects convey about them.
Lee got his first job, the first items he purchased were a large flat-screen TV and a couch with chair to impress his older and already successful brother.
![Page 39: Chapter 4 (types of non verbal communication)](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022012403/5561a83bd8b42ae9708b4e7e/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Whether the artifacts you choose are conscious attempts to impress or simply reflect your taste, when others enter your space, they will notice the artifacts and draw conclusions.

Use of time : Chronemics
Chronemics is how we interpret use of time and is based largely on cultural context .
Due to the differences of cultures, the way we use time for communication could be different.
![Page 43: Chapter 4 (types of non verbal communication)](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022012403/5561a83bd8b42ae9708b4e7e/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
People from Western cultures tend to be very time conscious. They carry daily planners and wear digital watches so we can arrive at precisely the “right time”
![Page 44: Chapter 4 (types of non verbal communication)](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022012403/5561a83bd8b42ae9708b4e7e/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
For the Mexican, it’s rare to specify an exact time for guests to arrive for dinner.

Monochronic and Polychronic :
Moreover, people can have either a monochronic or a polychronic orientation to time.
Monochronic time orientation : people tend to concentrate their efforts on one task, and only when it is finished or when the time we have allotted to it is over, do we move on to another task.
Others of us with a polychronic time orientation tend to tackle multiple tasks at once.
![Page 48: Chapter 4 (types of non verbal communication)](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022012403/5561a83bd8b42ae9708b4e7e/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)

Understand the differences between monochronic and
polychronic time orientation
• Proper understanding of the difference between these systems will be helpful in dealing with the time-flexible peoples in different cultures

Differences between monochronic and polychronic people
MONOCHRONIC PEOPLE
• Do one thing at a time: stick to schedule
POLYCHRONIC PEOPLE
• Do many things at once: have flexible schedule

MONOCHRONIC PEOPLE
• Take time commitments (deadlines, schedules) seriously
POLYCHRONIC PEOPLE
• Consider time commitments an objective to be achieved, if possible
![Page 54: Chapter 4 (types of non verbal communication)](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022012403/5561a83bd8b42ae9708b4e7e/html5/thumbnails/54.jpg)
MONOCHRONIC PEOPLE
• Are concerned about not disturbing others; follow rules of privacy and consideration
POLYCHRONIC PEOPLE
• Are more concerned with those who are closely related (family, friends, close business associates) than with privacy
![Page 55: Chapter 4 (types of non verbal communication)](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022012403/5561a83bd8b42ae9708b4e7e/html5/thumbnails/55.jpg)

To sum up
People in monochronic cultures such as the U.S. or Germany prefer promptness, careful planning and rigid commitment to plans. They also tend to be task-oriented whereas people from polychronic cultures are people-oriented. Cultures such as Italy or Brazil are considered to be polychronic since they prefer to have multiple things happening at once. Polychronic cultures tend to prioritise relationships over tasks and do not consider time commitments to be binding.
