Abstract:
The style people communicate has a significantimpact on how they get the things they want, express needs, avoid conflicts, and make healthy intersubjective relationships. The success of communication is always the shared responsibilities of both communicators –the sender and the recipient.The article offers the theoretical assumptions and practical results of the research on the communicative correlation between the phenomenon of intersubjectivity,and the existence of the communicationstyles –assertive, aggressive, and submissive. The authors introduce a semiological
approach to the paradigm of intersubjective processes, apply the conversation analysis to the material of English fictional discourse, and characterizethe nonverbal profiles of the communicationstyles under investigation. The article aims at highlightingthe specificityofintersubjectivity realization in different communicative styles according to the degree criterion and intensity features. The main findingsof the research revealthe intersubjectivity as a communicative style forming principle, which differently actualizes the concept of ''self and other''and manages the creation of the communicative climates (supportive or unsupportive) via verbal and nonverbal behaviors of the sender and the recipient who can or cannot demonstrate their intersubjective competence
