Department UCLA of Communication Studies CS 113: Nonverbal Communication and Body Language Spring, 2008 Tuesday/Thursday 2:00 3:15; Haines A18 Instructor: Kerri L. Johnson Rolfe 2330 Kerri.Johnson@ucla.edu Office Hours: Monday, 3:00 4:00 This course will examine how various forms of nonverbal communication convey meaningful information to perceivers. It will focus on both the production and perception of multiple communication formats (e.g., affect expression of the face and body, gesture, and kinematics), with a strong emphasis on body language. Readings will draw from a variety of related fields. Textbook: Manusov & Patterson. (2006) Sage Handbook of Nonverbal Communication. Sage Knapp & Hall. Course Requirements: 1. Exams Two preliminary exams will cover course material from both readings and lectures. Each will be worth 25% of your final grade. A comprehensive final exam will cover material from throughout the quarter, with an emphasis on material since Exam 2s. This will be worth 30% of your final grade. 2. Summary of Empirical Paper The material presented in this course is based on a foundation of empirical research. You will be required to summarize/review/analyze an original empirical article. This will be worth 20% of your final grade. This summary paper requires you to think critically about an original empirical manuscript that examines the effect of nonverbal behavior. Two or more alternatives will be posted online for you to choose from. You should focus your papers on a critical review of the following things: What is the empirical question/hypothesis? What methods did the authors use to answer the question? What were the results, and how should they be interpreted? In your opinion, evaluate the strength of the contribution. Do the authors interpret the results in a reasonable way? Is the work important/interesting? What is the next step in this program of research?
The focus of these papers should be critical analysis! These papers should be no more than 1 single spaced page (12 point font, 1 inch margin). Your name should be written on the BACK of the page. Do not staple a cover page to this assignment. Do not include a report cover. Papers are due on 29 May at the beginning of class. Papers turned in after class has begun, but on May 29 will lose 5 percentage points. Papers turned in after May 29 will receive a one letter grade reduction (i.e., 10%) for each day it is late. Bottom line: Don't turn your paper in late! Under no circumstances should you email your paper to me. It will not be graded until a hard copy is in hand, and will be counted late until that time.
