Research in many settings outside the classroom has indicated that nonverbal communication can serve a wide range of functions in human interaction. These include: (1) supplementing, reinforcing, or regulating verbal exchanges (Ekman & Friesen, 1969); (2) revealing emotional states or personality traits (Ekman & Friesen, 1975; Exline, Ellyson, & Long, 1975; Scherer, 1974); (3) providing cues for impression formation (Imada & Hakel, 1977; Wexley, Fugita, & Malone, 1975); (4) indicating liking or disliking for individuals, situations, or ideas (Mehrabian, 1972); (5) communicating relative status of interactants (Henley, 1977; Mehrabian, 1972); (6) being persuasive (Albert & Dabbs, 1970; McGinley, LeFevre, & McGinley, 1975); and (7) influencing the performance of others (Imada & Hakel, 1977; Word, Zanna, & Cooper, 1974). (A more complete discussion of the many possible functions of nonverbal behavior can be found in LaFrance & Mayo, 1978.) It is likely that nonverbal communication functions similarly in the classroom. In fact, many educators have presented cogent arguments for the importance of nonverbal communication in teaching (e.g., Beebe, 1981; Galloway, 1972; Grant & Hennings, 1971; Richey & Richey, 1978; Wolfgang, 1977). However, until quite recently, educational researchers have neglected the systematic study of this topic. The research that has been carried out consists predominantly of scattered, isolated studies without a common theoretical basis. This lack of internal coherence in previous research on nonverbal communication in teaching probably has been
