There are many messages and emotions shared with facial expressions and simple body language in both chimpanzees and humans. There are gestures that are used in non-vocal communication in which contact is made between individualsâ bodies and there are gestures where no physical contact is made at all. Chimpanzees will hold hands, kiss, pat each otherâs backs, and groom with friendly touches.
Military air marshallers use hand and body gestures to direct flight operations aboard aircraft carriers. A gesture is a form of non-verbal communication or non-vocal communication in which visible bodily actions communicate particular messages, either in place of, or in conjunction with, speech. Gestures include movement of the hands, face, or other parts of the body. Gestures differ from physical non-verbal communication that does not communicate specific messages, such as purely expressive displays, proxemics, or displays of joint attention. Gestures allow individuals to communicate a variety of feelings and thoughts, from contempt and hostility to approval and affection, often together with body language in addition to words when they speak. Gesture processing takes place in areas of the brain such as Broca's and Wernicke's areas, which are used by speech and sign language.
