271 Words2 Pages

Oculesics is defined as the study of how the eyes can communicate (Adler, et al 186). When Sheldon made this face it showed that he was surprised and taken back by what Amy was doing.

  • Garfinkeling: A Cultural Analysis

One can become more aware of these actions when he steps out of the procedures set by his culture and behave opposite of what is expected in his culture. The act of behaving in an unexpected manner that is opposite of the norm to elicit a response is known as “Garfinkeling”, named after Harold Garfinkel (Agar, 1994, p.169). By Garfinkeling, I was able to demonstrate how eye contact and the lack of it can disrupt the sign that it carries of paying attention and also interrupt the symbolic system that takes place when asking for assistance.
