Manusov V. (Ed.) The Sourcebook of Nonverbal Measures. Going Beyond Words

Mahwah: Lawrence Erlbaum Associates, 2005. — 540 p.The particular selection of chapters to include in this volume was strategic. My hope was to include some well-known and repeatedly validated assessment measures alongside some novel approaches just beginning their research journeys. I also wanted specifically to include research and researchers from a number of disciplines, as nonverbal behavior is one of those research topics that spans an array of scholarly interests. Additionally, and although the term measurement entails, typically, an orientation toward quantitative assessment, I hoped that this bookwould show qualitative means through which nonverbal cues can be illustrated and understood. It is my good fortune that most of the potential contributors I contacted said yes, and this volume has taken much of the shape I hoped it would.Introduction to nonverbal communication research
