Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Concept

Non-verbal communication is classified by the body channel that carries meaning.

Eye behaviour is oculesics; facial movement or expression is mimics; whole-body enactment is pantomimics; and arm or hand movement is gesture.

Application

Apply each definition to the descriptions in the two lists:

Term

Matching description

Oculesics

Eye movement (A→III)

Mimics

Movement of the face (B→IV)

Pantomimics

Movement and position of the whole body to tell a story (C→I)

Gesture

Movement of arms and hands to convey something (D→II)

Cross-check and contrast

  • Oculesics is limited to the eyes, whereas mimics involves facial movement.

  • Pantomimics uses the whole body, whereas gesture here uses the arms and hands.

Therefore, the matching sequence is A-III, B-IV, C-I, D-II.
