Abstract

Due to the feminist movement, male-female communication has become a topic of increased interest, especially in the area of nonverbal communication. Julius Fast (1970) made 51 body language” a household phrase, for better or for worse. But the study of nonverbal behavior has.only recently become a serious subject of research. As Randall Harrison (l97l) put it, We have important problems to solve. In short, I see us on the threshold of an exciting era of research in nonverbal communication (p. 2).”
