When Madison entered the crowded elevator, she continued to face the back of the elevator car and did not turn toward the door. People gave her some strange looks. Explain why this is a case of expectancy violation.
What will be an ideal response?
In general, we may feel uncomfortable or violated when another person invades our personal space. Understanding proxemics affords us opportunities to improve our relationships. By becoming aware of how space communicates, we attune ourselves to the nature of acceptable and unacceptable proxemic behavior. In this case, Madison violated the expectation by the other people in the elevator that everyone faces the door while the elevator is in operation.
