Online communication limits our expression and non-verbal communication capabilities.
- Body language
The image seen during a video conversation does not allow us to fully capture the dynamics of the interlocutors’ movements. - Mimicry expression
Mostly we can only observe the speaker’s facial expressions. - Poor eye contact
Online meetings, especially during screen/content sharing, prevent eye contact with the recipient.

- Interest
The respondent tends to move closer to a stimulus with positive valence (approach) and away from a stimulus with negative valence (avoidance). - Attitude
They tend to move their head more when viewing a positive stimulus (activation) and move their head less when viewing a negative stimulus (freezing).
