1 " The basic unit of analysis in face-to-face communication is thefeedback loop. For example, if you were given the task of describing aninteraction between a cat and a dog, you might make entries like: "Catspits, ... dog bares teeth, ... cat arches back,... dog barks,... cat—"At least as important as the particular actions described is the sequencein which they occur. And to some extent, any particular behavior bythe cat becomes understandable only in the context of the dog'sbehavior. If for some reason your observations were restricted to justthe cat, you would be challenged by the task of reconstructing what thecat was interacting with. The cat's behavior is much more difficult toappreciate and understand in isolation. "
