Abstract

Non-verbal communication augments verbal messages one sends. It can either ease understanding or confuse receivers. If it is a business deal therefore, there will be no closure of transactions. This encounter shall require reading nonverbal messages to discover shared cues leading to closure of deals. This is why this experiment was conducted to determine the time lag (TL) for which an occurrence will result in an understanding or misunderstanding. Two controlled groups were subject-respondents in the study, an odd numbered group, R1 to R7, and an even numbered, R1 to R8. Needed was to enumerate the number of pairs who should be standing, without hesitations, at anyone given time during the experiment. Results revealed several combinations for which participants had to exhaust all non-verbal means to send cues as to who stands next. R1 to R7 needed TL 3-minutes and 40-seconds before shared cues evolved resulting in the fluidity as to whose pair should be standing next at any one time if the experiment continues. On the other hand, the even numbered group R1 to R8 resulted on a speedy discovery of a shared cue taking them only 1-minute and 40-seconds.
