Question

A group of students made a list of guidelines for interpreting non-verbal behavior, but they made one mistake. Which item should be removed from the list of guidelines for interpreting non-verbal behavior?(1 point)Responsesmaintain normal eye contactmaintain normal eye contactlook for patterns or clusterslook for patterns or clustersalways consider the contextalways consider the contextpay attention to inconsistencies

Answer 1

Remove "maintain normal eye contact."

Reason: the other items (look for patterns/clusters, consider context, pay attention to inconsistencies) are core interpretive principles. "Maintain normal eye contact" is a rule for interacting, not for interpreting cues — and eye-contact norms vary by person and culture, so it’s not a reliable interpretive guideline.
