Teachers' Brief Nonverbal Behaviors in Defined Instructional Situations Can Predict Students' Evaluations.

Babad, Elisha; Avni-Babad, Dinah; Rosenthal, Robert

Journal of Educational Psychology, v95 n3 p553-62 Sep 2003

Examines if a few seconds of high school teachers' nonverbal (NV) behavior can predict students' ratings of these teachers (SRT). NV behaviors while administering the class and using the board were unrelated to SRT. Positive judgments of NV behavior while disciplining the class and interacting with students were positively related to SRT. (Contains 52 references and 1 table.) (GCP)
