Human Time Factors Chronemic is used for time characterization. Human awareness and use of time can be associated with cultural characteristics and as a non-verbal communication element. The study of chronemics as a variable in communications has an acceptable body of support. Chronemics can be seen to be used very differently with respect to individuals and cultures. Time perceptions include punctuality, willingness to wait, and interactions. Time use affects lifestyles, daily agendas, speed of speech and movements, how long people are willing to listen, etc. However as both cultural characteristic and communication factor, chronemic factors exhibit two states, monochronic and polychronic. Monochronic: one thing at a time (sequential). Polychronic: several things at once (parallel). |
