"There are many behaviors that we humans subconsciously follow – when I'm walking through crowds, I maintain personal distance or, if I'm talking with you, someone wouldn't go between us and interrupt," said grad student Ashwini Pokle in a Stanford News release.

The second zone is called personal distance and begins about an arm's length away; starting around eighteen inches from our person and ending about four feet away. We use personal distance in conversations with friends, to chat with associates, and in group discussions. The third zone of interpersonal space is called social distance and is the area that ranges from four to eight feet away from you. Social distance is reserved for strangers, newly formed groups, and new acquaintances.

Personal distance is still close but keeps another "at arm's length" and is considered the most comfortable distance for most of our interpersonal contact, while social distance is used for the kind of communication that occurs in business relationships and, sometimes, in the classroom. Public distance occurs in situations where two-way communication is not desirable or possible.

Swiss zoologist Heini Hediger distinguished between flight distance (run boundary), critical distance (attack boundary), personal distance (distance separating members of non-contact species, as a pair of swans), and social distance (intraspecies communication distance). Flight distance can be used as a measure of the willingness of an animal to take risks. Escape theory predicts that the probability of fleeing and flight distance increase as predation risk increases and decrease as escape cost increases. Flight initiation distance is one measure of animals' fear responses to humans.

Despite a certain personal distance between them, Lord Palmerston, as Foreign Secretary placed great confidence in Lamb, wrote to him in a courteous style very different from his usual brusque manner, and left the running of the Vienna Embassy almost entirely in his hands.Ridley, Jasper Lord Palmerston Constable London 1970 pp.220–221 The coolness was due to Palmerston's decades-long affair with Lamb's sister Emily, Lady Cowper; Lamb disapproved of the affair and disapproved equally of their eventual marriage, although this proved to be very happy.Ridley p.

Hediger described a number of standard interaction distances used in one form or another between animals. Two of these are flight distance and critical distance, used when animals of different species meet, whereas others are personal distance and social distance, observed during interactions between members of the same species. Hediger's biological social distance theories were used as a basis for Edward T. Hall's 1966 anthropological social distance theories. In the 1950s, psychologist Humphry Osmond developed the concept of socio-architecture hospital design, such as was used in the design of the Weyburn mental hospital in 1951, based partly on Hediger's species-habitat work.

Retrospectively, it is clear that from this confusion was born my > interest for the formal questions which remain until today. Although it eventually evolved in a direction of its own, Ferneyhough's 1967 wind sextet, Prometheus, began as a wind quintet with cor anglais, stemming directly from an encounter with Stockhausen's Zeitmaße. With respect to Stockhausen's later work, he said, > I have never subscribed (whatever the inevitable personal distance) to the > thesis according to which the many transformations of vocabulary > characterizing Stockhausen's development are the obvious sign of his > inability to carry out the early vision of strict order that he had in his > youth. On the contrary, it seems to me that the constant reconsideration of > his premises has led to the maintenance of a remarkably tough thread of > historical consciousness which will become clearer with time. . . .

Anchor Books. In the book, Body Language, Julius Fast mentioned that the signals that we send or receive to others through body language are reactions to others’ invasions of our personal territories, which links Proxemics an important part of Body Language. Hall also came up with four distinct zones in which most men operate: Intimate distance for embracing, touching or whispering : Close phase – less than 6 inches (15 cm) : Far phase – 6 to 18 inches (15 to 46 cm) Personal distance for interactions among good friends or family members :Close phase – 1.5 to 2.5 feet (46 to 76 cm) :Far phase – 2.5 to 4 feet (76 to 122 cm) Social distance for interactions among acquaintances :Close phase – 4 to 7 feet (1.2 to 2.1 m) :Far phase – 7 to 12 feet (2.1 to 3.7 m) Public Distance used for public speaking :Close phase – 12 to 25 feet (3.7 to 7.6 m) :Far phase – 25 feet (7.6 m) or more. In addition to physical distance, the level of intimacy between conversants can be determined by "socio-petal socio-fugal axis", or the "angle formed by the axis of the conversants' shoulders".
