- Title
IMPLICATIONS OF A NEUROPHYSIOLOGICAL APPROACH FOR THE STUDY OF A NONVERBAL COMMUNICATION.
- Authors
ANDERSEN, PETER A.; GARRISON, JOHN P.; ANDERSEN, JAMS F.
- Abstract
This article reviews the neurophysiological literature as it pertains to nonverbal communication. It provides an overview of research on the function of the cerebral hemispheres as related to communication, with particular emphasis on the right hemisphere where most nonverbal communication is processed. Limitations of the neurophysiological approach are discussed. Finally, implications of the neurophysiological approach are discussed for: (1) defining nonverbal communication, (2) the phylogenetic development of communication in humans, and (3) communication research and theory.
