Kobiece czy męskie? Gesty adaptacyjne w dialogu publicznym
Female or male? Adaptors in public dialogue

Summary/Abstract: This article is an attempt to show how the gestures called by researchers adaptors function in public dialogue. As shown by the preliminary observations, their specificity is not necessarily related to gender, because in public speaking situations adaptive gestures are performed widely, regardless of the speakers’ degree of familiarity with the cameras, sex, social position or role in a public spectacle. They are rather universal behaviors, indicators of certain universal human emotions associated with speeches of media actors.
