【摘要】 人际间的交流分为言语交流和非言语交流,非语言交际中的性别差异研究是跨文化交际中的微观领域。同时,身势语作为非言语交际活动的一个重要方面,也存在着性差原则,正确理解性别差异,才能很好地进行人际间的交往。学者们普遍认同身势语的性别差异涉及五个方面,第一,姿势语,包括站姿、坐姿和走姿的差别;第二,手势语的差别;第三,面部表情的差异;第四,眼神的差异;最后是触摸行为上的差别。作为社会语言学的一个领域,交际中的性别差异研究得到了学者们的关注,同时也并引起了很多相关领域的研究,如心理学,社会学和语言学等。然而,目前有关身势语行为的研究,大多数只是对于其定义和分类的阐述,或是阐述言语交际中的性别差异,而对于男女身势语行为进行具体的比较分析的研究并不多。本文试图从非语言交际的视角来解释和分析男女性别之间在身势语行为方面存在的差异,以解决性别文化差异给跨文化交际所带来的矛盾和困惑。在研究方法上,本文进行了观察性研究和问卷调查,并对收回的数据进行了论述和分析。最后,本文根据霍夫斯泰德有关文化价值观提出的社会的男性化和女性化的理论,指出在中国这个相对社会男性化的国家,男女价值观体系中存在较大差异,并通过身势语行为表现出来。同时,本文试图对所出现的这些差异给予合理的解释,并指出正确理解和运用身势语行为有助于成功地进行跨文化交际。更多还原

【Abstract】 Verbal communication and non-verbal communication are the two forms of interpersonal communication. The first category of nonverbal communication is body language, and the research of kinesics is an important part of non-verbal communication. There are some significant gender differences in kinesics and they have important implications in intercultural communication.Gender differences of kinesics include five aspects: Firstly, gender differences in postures; Secondly, gesture differences between men and women; Thirdly, males and females are differed in facial expressions, Fourthly, they are different in eye contact, and finally tactile communication differences are also distinguished between males and females.As a subfield in sociolinguistics, gender differences in communication have aroused great attention. The study of gender-related differences in communication is one of the most important research subjects of sociolinguistics. And many related researches have been developed, such as psychology, sociology and linguistics. However, the researches concerned with kinesics are mostly referred to the definitions and classifications. A specific study of the gender differences in kinesics was seldom made.The thesis studies the gender differences and kinesics in the background of nonverbal communication. A comparison is attempted in the kinesics between males and females. Furthermore, as for the research methods concerned, the study focuses on the observation and questionnaire to find the useful data.In addition, according to Hofstede’s Masculinity and Femininity, China is a much masculinity displayed country and the differences of kinesics between women and men are obvious. Finally, the study aims to explain the kinesics differences between men and women and as expected, the results may offer much contribution to the intercultural communication.更多还原
