Questions: Messages sent to someone through other than spoken means are called nonverbal feedback. True or False

The answer is False: Messages sent to someone through other than spoken means are not called nonverbal feedback; they are typically referred to as nonverbal communication.

Explanation:

• Nonverbal communication encompasses all the ways we convey messages without using words, such as through body language, facial expressions, gestures, posture, eye contact, and tone of voice.
• Nonverbal feedback, on the other hand, refers specifically to the nonverbal cues that a listener provides in response to a speaker, indicating understanding, agreement, confusion, or other reactions. This is a subset of nonverbal communication.
• Therefore, the statement that messages sent through other than spoken means are called nonverbal feedback is incorrect, as it conflates the broader category of nonverbal communication with the specific concept of feedback.
