Discussion Post: Nonverbal Communication

Nonverbal communication is a broad and fascinating area of study. Some research estimates that up to 90% of the emotional content of our interpersonal interactions is communicated nonverbally. One area of interest within the category of nonverbal communication is how we learn to "claim" and use space for ourselves (territoriality). This activity will call for some self-reflection and analysis as we examine one of our own spaces.

I. Discuss what territorial markers are.

II. Why are territorial markers important?

III. Using a location that you can primarily claim as your own, that you have arranged and decorated, and mostly has things in it that belong to you; write a thoughtful analysis of what an observer familiar with territoriality and territorial markers (see page 193 of the textbook) might be able to figure out about YOU based on what he or she can see in this space. Think about the objects in this place, the spatial arrangements, color choices, textures, etc. and what these would tell someone about the person who "owns" this space.
