Abstract | An investigation examined teachers' perceptions of nonverbal behaviors of their students within a developmental paradigm. A questionnaire was sent to 901 elementary and secondary school teachers from a 4-state area. It asked teachers to estimate the percentage of students who engaged in 24 nonverbal classroom behaviors of 4 general types: chronemic (time orientation), classroom environment, turn-taking and conversational regulation, and emotional expression and recognition. Results indicated that (1) children were more alert in the morning than later in the day; (2) children in the early primary grades had a clearer understanding of informal time than formal time, while in the later grades that trend was reversed; (3) students at all grade levels preferred colorful classrooms; (4) older children were more competent in pausing in appropriate places when talking; (5) the percentage of students who clearly communicated their emotions to teachers declined with age; (6) students decreased the expressions of emotions through actions with grade level; (7) students reduced their physical expression of anger as they matured with grade level; and (8) by the end of high school, only half of all students were perceived as being able to clearly express or interpret emotions.
