中文摘要:非语言交际，通常被理解为发送和接收无声的信息的过程。“体态语”同语言一样，都是文化的一个重要的组成部分。文化与非语言交际密不可分；许多非语言交际都是文化习得的结果；人们的非语言行为的形成和效果往往都由一定的文化环境决定。在不同的国家同一体态语的意义不一定完全相同。各个国家、民族有其不同的非语言交际的方式。因此，在跨文化交际中研究非语言交际与文化之间的关系最为现实的意义是要解决非语言交际中的文化冲突问题。本文从文化角度对某些体态语在不同的文化背景中的含义作了介绍，探讨了东方与西方在空间距离、目光注视、身体接触、姿态动作与面部表情等方面的文化差异，论述理解文化含义在非语言交际中的重要性。
