Dr. Albert Mehrabian’s 7-38-55 Rule. Of course science and psychology are always improving. In communication a speaker s words are only a fraction of his efforts.
Before albert mehrabian became interested in psychology he obtained a bsc. Explanations behaviors understanding body language mehrabian s communication study. We communicate globally with one another by means of language gestures signs and pictograms.
I think it depends what you mean by still valid.
Before albert mehrabian became interested in psychology he obtained a bsc. Albert mehrabian born in 1939 to an armenian family living in iran is professor emeritus of psychology at the university of california los angeles. This was the culmination of two pioneering studies conducted in 1967. Thanks obviously there is a huge movement against the misinterpretation misuse of the 7 38 55 finding but it seems to me that an important part of communication is congruency between what you say and how you say it ie tone and body language and the feeling from many of the commentators and mehrabian knights not just here is now the opposite that is as long as you have great content.
