Topic 9.7
How does communication theory from linguistics influence our understanding of non-verbal cues in interpersonal attraction?
Effective non-verbal communication such as body language and eye contact can enhance perceived attractiveness.
All non-verbal cues are universally understood, therefore they play a negligible role in interpersonal attraction.
Non-verbal cues have no effect on interpersonal attraction as verbal communication is always more important.
Negative non-verbal signals like avoiding eye contact or crossing arms often increase attractiveness by creating a sense of mystery.
