Warmth portrayals to recruit students into science majors

Abstract: Negative perception of scientists is disquieting for the future of science and US economic and scientific competitiveness. Drawing on studies suggesting that warmth guides people’s judgments of social groups and professions, this study aims to communicate the interpersonal warmth of scientists using two non-verbal behaviors, namely, smiling and collaboration. Building on the visual communication literature, posters were used in a 2 x 2 x 3 within-subject, online experiment in the context of College of Agricult… Show more

“…Over the past two decades, researchers have focused on classroom interactions, particularly on social semiotic modes such as writing, drawing (Kress & Van Leeuwen, 1996), and colour (Kress & Van Leeuwen, 2002). Special attention was given to the non-verbal aspects of communication in the processes of meaning creation, including examining multimodal processes (Adami & Swanwick, 2019) of gestures and movements (Farsani, 2015a;Radford, Edwards, & Arzarello, 2009;Kress et al, 2001), posture (Brey & Shutts, 2015;Inagaki, Shimizu & Sakairi, 2018;Zahry & Besley, 2019), gaze (Araya, Farsani, & Hernández, 2016;Farsani & Villa-Ochoa, 2022;Holsanova, Rahm, & Holmqvist, 2006), nod (Smith-Hanen, 1977), and shoulder orientation (LaCrosse, 1975). However, few studies have focused on proxemics in classroom research (Collier, 1983), particularly in mathematics classes (Farsani, Breda, & Sala, 2020).…”
