This page is a work in progress and will be finished by May 9th, 2007. Please have patience with us as we are new to Wikipedia! We are a graduate class group with the University of Oklahoma completing a project for our final grade!
I'm sorry, my mistake. I'll remove the nomination for speedy deletion now. --Lifebaka 23:08, 7 May 2007 (UTC)
This page will be finished May 14th, and graded shortly after. No edits or deletions please!
The section "Theories Associated with Chronemics" needs a rewrite. Much of it is written in an extremely annoying language called "Im-a-moron-but-I-want-to-sound-intelligent-so-lets-hide-my-stupidity-with-big-words" and is useful to absolutely no-one. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 193.120.94.181 (talk) 20:23, 13 March 2009 (UTC)
There are lots of references at the end of the article, but almost no footnoting or endnoting to verify where the information came from. uberwalker31 3:48, 24 May 2010 (EST)
I feel as though this page in particular is in need of many more references. It makes claims about societies and ethnic groups that come off as bias in my opinion, making certain cultures seem lazy and scatterbrained as a rule. Someone might consider this article offensive and/or inaccurate.Goblins77 (talk) 04:27, 11 November 2010 (UTC)
What does "Facilitating service and task goals" have to do with time? Also, in my opinion, the way this is written, it appears to be more flattering to the cultures who don't value time. So I guess it comes down to what time system you live by. What you consider lazy and scatterbrained I consider laid back and easy going. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.181.246.229 (talk) 00:51, 2 December 2010 (UTC)
Removed the following: "For example, most Europeans will schedule a meeting for a specific time, such as 2:15 p.m., and expect all involved parties to be punctual. In many cultures in Africa and Latin America, however, they may set a time to meet "sometime in the afternoon" and on many occasions the schedule is broken, changed or deadline unmet.[citation needed]" In addition to seriously needing citation, it seems (probably unintentionally) racist as well as over-generalized.

New Orleans!? really?!?! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.245.24.251 (talk) 22:35, 14 April 2012 (UTC)
As the class that began this page closed in 2007, I propose we begin editing this page to bring it into line with wikipedia practice. Markround (talk) 09:58, 14 November 2013 (UTC)
- Removed following section. It is really tangential to the main topic -- it seems more designed to add lots of Burgoon's work even if not central to the article, which may be related to the class working on the article being from the same university as Burgoon.Cygnature (talk) 16:41, 17 February 2015 (UTC)
- === Interpersonal Deception Theory ===
- Developed by Judee Burgoon and David Buller, Interpersonal Deception Theory (IDT) posits communication senders attempt to manipulate messages so as to be untruthful, which may cause them apprehension concerning their false communication being detected. Simultaneously, communication receivers try to unveil or detect the validity of that information, causing suspicion about whether or not the sender is being deceitful. While most people think that they can spot deception, IDT affirms that most people cannot.
- According to IDT, there are 3 stages to deception:
- Falsification – creates a fiction
- Concealment – hides a secret
- Equivocation – dodges the issue
- ==== Relationship to Chronemics ====
- Pausing in between statements is usually an indicator that an individual is going to lie or be deceptive in their response. IDT says that the deceiver can control these nonverbal cues, perhaps in a way that will even throw off the other person so that they will not know if it is the truth or deceit. This manipulation of time to create confusion decreases the odds that the deceiver will be discovered.
- ==== Popular Movie Examples ====
- The following movies were cited in Em Griffin's A First Look at Communication as having great examples of IDT:
- Catch Me If You Can - starring Leonardo DiCaprio and Tom Hanks
- House of Games - starring Lindsay Crouse and Joe Mantegna
- The Sting - starring Paul Newman and Robert Redford
- The Talented Mr. Ripley (film) - starring Matt Damon and Gwyneth Paltrow
