| Abstract |
| How can differences among people in the proclivity to say things by doing rather than verbally be understood and measured? Behavioral Communication (BC) is defined as a variable of individual differences concerning the use of behaviors that indirectly express one's feelings, needs, and thoughts, as a substitute for more direct and open forms of communication. BC thus provides a conceptual framework to account for many instances of day-to-day behavior from communication standpoint. A measure of the construct, the 33-item Behavioral Communication Questionnaire (BCQ), was developed with an Internet sample (N = 247). High alpha reliability (from .92 to .93) was obtained with each version of the measure. Psychometric analyses of the BCQ as well as its subscales and correlates are presented. |
