Discussion 14: Nonverbal Observation

 Directions

I’d like for each of you to spend a few minutes watching someone in a public setting for the sole purpose of observing nonverbal clues. Do not choose someone you already know, such as a group of friends, family, your children, etc. Choose people who are at least teenagers or older. For example, watch a couple while you’re having coffee one afternoon, or a family while you’re waiting for a movie to start, and so on. You don’t want it to be obvious that you’re watching.

You want to choose someone who is not alone—someone sitting or talking with another live person, not someone on a cell phone. Although it is hard these days, try to find people who aren’t texting or scrolling through their phones the entire time. You will need to observe both people or the entire group for interaction, but you want to focus on one main person to write about. You may want to write down some notes to yourself as you watch. Each answer should be a paragraph (a minimum of 5–7 sentences) in length. In particular, look for some of the following things:

  1. Briefly explain the context…where were you? Who were you watching? Why did you choose this person? What was it about the interaction that got your attention?
  2. What kind of gestures did you see? Describe the gestures. Don’t just say, “she used her hands a lot.” How? There’s a difference between pointing your finger in someone’s face and stroking someone’s face. Did it seem this person needed his/her hands to express themselves? Did he or she have any repetitive habits like drumming his fingers or playing with her hair? Did this person touch someone with them? What did the touch tell you? Would you say this person used his or her whole body to communicate, or did this person make only small, occasional movements and gestures?
  3. Did this person’s clothing or body say anything about him or her? Describe what he/she is wearing. A T-shirt with a slogan or art? Do you see any tattoos, piercings, etc.? Jewelry? Dressed up or casual? Did you feel he or she was appropriately dressed for the time and place?
  4. What about eye contact? Did this person sustain eye contact with whomever he/she was with? Some eye contact? A lot of eye contact? Smiles? Frowns? Would you say based on the nonverbal behavior that you would describe this person as happy, sad, preoccupied, friendly, quiet, standoffish, what?
  5. What did this experience show you about communicating nonverbally? How might this experience affect how you interact in the future? How do you feel verbal and nonverbal communication differ after doing this exercise? Does nonverbal communication enhance or distract?

How do these sources contribute to support your speech? How does the support you chose create audience connection with your topic?

The Autonomic Nervous System

Objective:  c09ob25 – Define the purpose of the autonomic nervous system. (1)

  1. Define Autonomic Nervous System:
  2. What are the primary targets of the ANS?
  3. What is meant by autonomic (involuntary)?

Objective:  c09ob26 – State the pathway of the visceral reflex. (1)  (E book 9.5b Neural Pathways)

  1. In autonomic pathways, the signal must travel across     neurons to get to the target cell.
  2. One neuron will pass through a      to meet the other neuron.
  3. Effectors are:    muscle,      muscle, and some glands

Objective:  c08ob02 – State the two autonomic nervous system subdivisions.  (E book 9.5c Subdivisions)

Name the two divisions of the ANS.

Objective:  c09ob28 – State which Autonomic Nervous System is called the “fight or flight system” and explain why.(2)

Objective: c09ob29 – State which Autonomic Nervous System is called the “rest and repose” or “housekeeping” system and explain why. (2)

Objective:  c09ob27 –  Compare the sympathetic and parasympathetic in terms of: (2)

  • function (see above)
  • which controls the adrenal medulla
  • cholinergic vs. adrenergic(E book 9.5d)
  • the neurotransmitters they release (E book 9.5d)
  • their functions in controlling heart rate, breathing rate, and digestion (Table 9.3)

ANS maintains homeostasis of the viscera (organs).  The heart is dual innervated.  That means both the sympathetic and parasympathetic innervate the heart.  They are antagonistic meaning one slows the heart rate and decreases the force of contraction and the other speeds up the heart rate and increases the force of contraction.

  • Sympathetic reflexes – what neurotransmitter is used on the effector, the heart?
Effector

Preganglionic                             Postganglionic

 

  • Parasympathetic reflexes – what neurotransmitter is used on the effector, the heart?
Effector

Preganglionic                         Postganglionic

 

Cholinergic – means the postganglionic neuron releases acetylcholine.  Which system is cholinergic – the sympathetic or the parasympathetic?

Adrenergic – means the postganglionic neuron releases norepinephrine.  Which system is cholinergic – the sympathetic or the parasympathetic?

Which system controls secretion by the adrenal medulla – the sympathetic or the parasympathetic?  What two hormones are released by the adrenal medulla?

Using Table 9.3 Fill in the following:  E book 9.5e

  Sympathetic Parasympathetic
Effect on heart

 

 Increases heart rate and force of contraction  
Effect on breathing rate (air flow)

 

    
Effect on bronchioles

 

    
Effect on digestion (look at gastric motility)

 

   Increases digestion rate

 

Higher Level Regulation of ANS

  • Emotions, Depression, and Anxiety can all affect the ANS. In the E book what are the four functions that may be affected?

In the healthcare field, it is very important to understand that emotions affect our body. An individual under stress can exhibit many symptoms that are stress related.  If you are stressed what signs and symptoms may you exhibit?

Survey design

First part,You will submit a 1-2 page overview of your customer organization, including a brief history, the purpose of the organization, and any other relevant information that sets the stage for your analysis. The overview should also include your research question and the main variables of interest.

The second part will be your survey design. This assignment will help you develop your survey design skills. In order to conduct the quantitative methods study for your research project, you will design and administer a short survey that will help you collect data to measure your variables. The survey should follow best practices of survey design covered in Module 6. The survey must include a short cover letter, outlining the purpose of your survey, addressing anonymity/confidentiality concerns, and an explanation of how the data will be used. The survey should include at least 8 questions (to measure your main variables of interest and demographic questions). You may use Qualtrics to administer your survey.

What is the main question that the authors investigated? Briefly describe the experiment(s) the authors used to answer their question. Summarize the conclusions the authors drew from their experiment(s).

What do you have to do ? What are examples of material culture? What is a response piece?

What do you have to do ?

Write a 500 word response piece using a minimum of 5 academic references to discuss a sample of material culture relating to South Asia from the 1600’s to 2021 . Double spaced , 12 point font minimum.

What are examples of material culture?
Material culture, tools, weapons, utensils, machines, ornaments, art, buildings, monuments, written records, religious images, clothing, and any other ponderable objects produced or used by humans. If all the human beings in the world ceased to exist, nonmaterial aspects of culture would cease to exist along with them.

What is a response piece?
As opposed to a formal primary source analysis where you are discouraged from using the first person narrative “I”, in a response piece you are expected to write about your personal response. However, you must use informed opinion and you must demonstrate that by connecting your responses to academic literature. So, for instance if you feel a porcelain vase from the 1850’s is a fine example of Bengali ceramic ware, you must cite a reference that tells us what Bengali ceramic ware was and how quality was judged.

Create a Request for Proposal (RFP) for an event supplier

You have recently been hired as the Director of Meetings for the National Association for Law Placement, Inc. (NALP). Your first order of business is to find a location for the 2026 Annual Education Conference. You have decided to locate the event in a single hotel rather than use a convention center and a hotel.

Visit the web site for NALP to learn more about this organization and its event history: www.NALP.org

When creating your RFP, assume that 750 people will attend the conference. Many of them will be sharing rooms but not all of them. Pay particular attention to the dates/times of the various functions at NALP and the types/size of spaces you will need.

There are many resources available in Module 1 to help you with this assignment, particularly the Jubilee RFP. While you may want to use the Jubilee RFP and Cvent RFP as a starting point, there are significant differences between this event and the Cvent & Jubilee events that you need to consider.  For example, at the NALP event, there is no function that warrants staging and rehearsals.

The program for 2026 follows and clearly details the schedule and functions held throughout the conference.
