Example of Nonverbal Communication: Nodding
Nice topic, thanks for bringing that up. Here's another good example: NODDING your head.
A head nod is a gesture in which the head is moved vertically up and down, to be exact in alternating up and down arcs along the sagittal plane. In most countries and cultures, nodding is used to indicate agreement, acceptance, or acknowledgement.
But not universally! For example, in Greece, Cyprus, Iran, Turkey, Bulgaria, a single nod of the head up (not down) indicates a "no".
Furthermore, nodding can also be used as a form of greeting or at least as an acknowledgment of someone else's presence. In this context, it is a small, subtle form of bowing, with just enough movement to show a degree of respect without much effort or extra formality.
