Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Copresence, or the physical presence of individuals in face-to-face interactions, is missing from online interactions. Without copresence, nonverbal cues and social context can be lost, potentially leading to misunderstandings or incomplete communication.

Answer: C 
 Emotion work, or the process of managing and expressing emotions in social interactions, may be more difficult in online interactions. Without the benefit of face-to-face communication, it can be challenging to accurately convey emotions and to interpret the emotions of others.

Answer: D 
 Impression management, or the process of presenting a desired image of oneself to others, may be more difficult in online interactions. Without the ability to control nonverbal cues and context as effectively, individuals may struggle to present themselves in the desired manner.
