Effects of Teacher Immediacy and Strategy Type on College Student Resistance to On-Task Demands.
Kearney, Patricia; And Others
Communication Education, v37 n1 p54-67 Jan 1988
Investigates the effects of teacher nonverbal immediacy and strategy type on college students' likelihood of resisting teacher compliance-gaining attempts. Suggests that the relative effectiveness of prosocial strategies and antisocial strategies may be contingent on teachers' nonverbal immediacy, with students reporting a greater likelihood of resistance to strategies which are asynchronous with teacher immediacy.
