Nonconscious mimicry is used to build rapport as well gain the liking of others, during first encounters and when there is a perceived threat to belonging or existing relationships. Mimicry can occur through verbal and nonverbal methods such as physical gestures, mannerisms and taking on the perception of others. This experiment explored whether the absence or presence of behavioral mimicry affects rapport and recall measured by the accuracy of details. It was hypothesized that behavioral mimicry would result in more accurate recall of details. The hypothesis of the study was not confirmed.
