Body language as communication: perspectives from the Hebrew Bible This contribution treats aspects of the important source of nonverbal communication in the Hebrew Bible. It focuses especially on the following themes: - the problem of terminology, - legal acts, with special emphasis on the idea of dissociation, - the manner in which some emotions (shame, disgust) are displayed nonverbally, - the manifestation of nonverbal communication in narrative literature (especially in the nonverbal category “proxemics” in Ruth 2-3).

Although language may become impaired by dementia, communication with your loved one is still possible. Speak clearly and slowly in a quiet environment. Help them obtain hearing aids, if needed. Reading and writing may be beneficial for those who have hearing or speech problems and mild dementia. Speech therapy may also benefit those with mild dementia and trouble talking. Pictures can often compensate for a variety of comprehension and communication problems. Gestures, body language, facial expression, tone of voice, and other nonlinguistic and nonverbal communication can be useful, both in person and over a video phone. Lastly, remember that emotional communication is often preserved in dementia.

The aim of this study was to examine the impact of a tennis player’s body language and clothing (general vs. sport-specific) on the impressions observers form of them. Forty male tennis players viewed videos of a target tennis player warming up. Each participant viewed the target player displaying one of four combinations of body language and clothing (positive body language/tennis-specific clothing; positive body language/general sportswear; negative body language/tennis-specific clothing; negative body language/general sportswear). After viewing the target player, participants rated their impressions of the model’s episodic states and dispositions and gave their perceptions of the likely outcome of a tennis match with the target player. Analyses of variance revealed that positive body language led to favorable episodic impressions and low outcome expectations. Analysis also indicated that clothing and body language had an interactive effect on dispositional judgments. The study supports the contention that nonverbal communication can influence sporting interactions.

The purpose of this study was to discover what nonverbal facial behaviors are important in an interview setting. This was done by conducting interviews with eight current employers as well as four college age persons who have recently interviewed for a job. As a result, the data suggests that the two main facial behaviors sought by employers in the interview of the applicant were smiling and eye contact. Other nonverbal communication behaviors were analyzed as well. These findings will allow people to be better prepared and be more conscious of what they are displaying in the interview setting in the terms of nonverbal facial cues when interviewing for a future career.

This paper examines the importance of reading the body language signals in business negotiations and business meetings. By observing the physical changes of the human body, gestures, can lead to a more or less realistic impression about opponent, feelings of the other person, his mood, thoughts, expectations, intentions, and their changes. In non-verbal body language are very much important things : human posture, dress, accessories, gestures, eye contact, facial expressions, smile, voice intonation, laughter, eye contact, eye signs, the distance between the communicators, touch, clap, dance, and physiological responses - sweating palms, forehead, paleness, resulting in acute facial, neck redness and others. Part of nonverbal communication signs, or in other words the body language signals are sent consciously (natural or play signs, signals), and the other part of the body signals is emitted into the environment unintentionally, when to the information received response is made immediately, instantly, instinctively and without thinking. Body language signals in business negotiations or business meetings are important in several aspects:- reveal the other person’s, the opponent's physical and emotional state as well as its evolution;- complement, reinforce or weaken the spoken language;- allows those who are able to read nonverbal communication signs, to determine more or less accurately whether oral language is true.

¿Qué es la expresión corporal? ¿para qué sirve el lenguaje del cuerpo? ¿qué metodología de enseñanza resulta más apropiada para trabajar contenidos expresivos? ¿cómo provocar un aprendizaje significativo a través de la utilización de una progresión lógica de actividades expresivas?. El presente trabajo se ha llevado a cabo con el propósito de tratar de dar respuesta a estos y otros interrogantes contribuyendo a la formación permanente y específica de los profesionales en materia de comunicación no verbal. Se trata de analizar la expresión corporal como una práctica de intervención que permite encontrar un lenguaje propio mediante el estudio y la profundización del empleo del cuerpo. Se parte de la hipótesis de que es fundamental que los profesionales vinculados a contextos educativos y recreativos descubran el potencial de la expresión corporal para el desarrollo integral de la persona. De esta forma, para utilizar la Expresión Corporal como herramienta formativa es imprescindible ser capaz de adaptar y/o combinar las diferentes actividades expresivas a las necesidades educativas y recreativas del grupo con el que trabaje.Palabra clave: Expresión Corporal. Lenguaje del cuerpo. Comunicación no verbal. Aprender haciendo. Actividades expresivas.Abstract: What is body language? What do you use body language? What teaching methodology is more appropriate to work expressive content? How do you teach significantly through the use of a logical progression of expressive activities?. In order to contribute to a specific training of professionals in nonverbal communication, the present review seeks to analyze the body language as a discipline that allows you to find a personal language through study and deepening the use of body . It starts from the assumption that it is essential that education and recreational professionals discover the potential of body language for the development of the individual. In this way, it will be able to develop their own sessions, adapting and/or combining various expressive activities to educational and recreational needs of their groups.Key words: Body Language. Non verbal communication. Learning by doing. Expressive activities.

People mirror each other's body language as a way of bonding, seeking acceptance and creating rapport. Light Perfume is an interactive wearable system designed in the shape of a bangle that helps the wearer mirror their partner through lighting and olfactory cues. During a conversation, the Light Perfume system on each person's wrist uses multiple inputs from the surrounding environment to generate a synchronized output expression. This consists of a color and blinking frequency of light along with a perfume fragrance that is stimulated simultaneously from each system. The Light Perfume system was designed to foster social interactions and make people feel more empathy towards each other.

The object of research is the communication features of contemporary art. The aim is to reveal these features based on a review of the literature. The paper discusses the concept of communication in contemporary art; describes the characteristics of contemporary art as a medium; defines communication models in contemporary art. Communication and its features are manifested in many fields, one of which is art. To discuss the concept of communication in contemporary art, the levels of verbal and nonverbal communication are distinguished. Image forms, colours, lighting, lines, motifs, body language, sound, as well as the written or unwritten language of verbal communication about a work of art, can serve to recognise the communicative properties of a work of art. Types of intrapersonal and public and mass communication are applied, communication process models are based.
