Abstract

Men and women communicate in different ways. Their interaction patterns differ at both the verbal and the nonverbal level. Next to descriptive analysis, research has also aimed to explain sex differences in interaction behaviour. The oldest explanatory paradigm, “the dominance approach’, considers women as a suppressed group. In this view, sex differences in communication behaviour can be attributed to male dominance and female subordination. However, in the past 10 years, the dominance approach is being questioned and is increasingly replaced by the “difference approach’. This model emphasises the idea that men and women are socialised in two different subcultures and consequently develop different interaction patterns.
