Posture is one of nonverbal behavior and a universal means of animal and human behavior. A number of writers working in the clinical field have empasized that a close relationship exists between posture and body movement and speech. Our recent researches have found out that posture had effects on one's awareness. This study compared subjects' awareness on the discrepancy between posture and speech contents. Three kinds of posture were as fellow: to lean backward on the chair, to sit in a natural position on the chair and to hang their head bending their back. And on each posture subjects spoke three expressions; "Good morning.", "All right. I will try to work harder.", "It's all over for me." And then, in these conditions they estimated their mood and awareness for 19 pairs of adjectives at 7 points scale. As the result of ANOVA, there were significant differences in both conditions of posture and speech contents. The author confirmed that posture exerted a strong influence on one's awareness.
