thread_title:  Americans? 

message: Remland and Jones (1995) studied groups of people communicating and found that in England (8%), France (5%) and the Netherlands (4%) touching was rare compared to their Italian (14%) and Greek (12.5%) sample.
What does these numbers refer to? They're pretty nonsensical without a definition. --85.231.180.45 (talk) 18:54, 15 March 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  X percents of what did what? 

message: This page is a mess with two/three areas vying for the word haptic(s)
The area may be better described in three sections 
* Haptic_communications alternatively Haptic_behaviour 
To contain most of what is currently on this page (Haptics)
* Haptic_perception (ie the use of haptics in the psychology of perception)
Possibly the introductory page since Gibson (1965) and Titchner (1895) Amer. Jrnl. Psychol. VIII. 82 were both using the word well before the usage currently outlined on these pages.
* Haptic_technology
currently filed under the page Haptic  —Preceding unsigned comment added by W.Harwin (talk • contribs) 19:08, 25 March 2008 (UTC)

message: For my Class project I plan on editing the article Haptic communication, it seems to need to be revamp, it has insufficient inline citation, it lacks elaborations of introduced topics, books I plan on using/ adding The Five Love Languages, and Men Are from Mars, Women Are from Venus . I plan on also cheking citaions for broking links and accuracy.Rockbd (talk) 21:15, 19 March 2017 (UTC)

message: Many portions of this page are scarcely cited.
Many portions of this page are also poorly worded and contain grammatical errors to a degree that is both distracting and confusing for the reader. These include many run-on sentences, comma splices, phrases such as "and etc.", and more.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.16.142.194 (talk) 02:44, 20 November 2017 (UTC)
thread_title:  This page needs review 

message: It's like the author is too polite to say anything. For just as examples; these quotes are too abstract, I understand them, but I'VE NEVER seen it, are you making this stuff up?
 "....These touches can be further classified as compliance, attention-getting, and announcing a response. <BR>  Compliance: Attempts to direct behavior of another person, and often, by implication, to influence attitudes or feelings. <BR>   Attention-getting: Serve to direct the touch recipient’s perceptual focus toward something. <BR>   Announcing a response: Call attention to and emphasize a feeling state of initiator; implicitly requests affect response from another.
Each one needs examples.  "Encyclopedic style" does not mean dry and boring, nor too afraid to say something. But the photo (head patting) may exhibit paternalism, a form of dominance not mentioned here, but something people can actually relate to.  
Also, the article sometimes drifts into touching — forgetting the article is about communication. Finally, while touch is vital, you haven't fulfilled your wild claims that Haptic communication is so dire, —one feels ripped off. —Cheers!  <BR> --2602:306:CFCE:1EE0:79E5:B5F9:5709:7E44 (talk) 23:09, 24 May 2018 (UTC)
