Proxemics is a theory of non-verbal communication that  explains how people communicate without words through personal speaking  distance, speech volume, eye contact, touching, body position, and the  context in which the communication occurs. Different individuals,  especially those from different cultural backgrounds, have different  comfort levels with these non-verbal elements of communication and may  have different non-verbal communication standards.

For this  discussion, identify three volunteers, if possible, from different  demographic backgrounds, including age, national origin, and gender.  Explain the theory of proxemics to them and ask if they would allow you  to assess the degree of comfort or discomfort when these different  non-verbal communication components are varied. As you talk to them,  vary the personal distance, speech volume, eye contact, touching (if  appropriate based on local cultural norms), body position, and setting  in which the communication occurs. Discuss how each variable positively  or negatively impacts the communication process. Then, summarize how  these factors increase or decrease your ability to actively listen to  the other party and why they are valuable.

If you cannot find three volunteers for this assignment, watch the following video clip: Cultural Proxemics—Personal Space.  Then, provide three key ideas you have gained from watching the video  clip. Include a summary of what you have observed and learned from this  exercise.
