Close-up eye contact is intense
Whereas in a Zoom chat, everyone is constantly staring into the screen, dramatically increasing eye contact.
Solution: Take Zoom out of full-screen mode or reduce the size of the app windows to make faces appear smaller on-screen, and sit further away from the screen.
Seeing your own face all the time is exhausting
Solution: Hide yourself from view in the chat window.
Sitting still and talking is unnatural
"There's a growing research now that says when people are moving, they're performing better cognitively,"
Solution: Creating more space between yourself and the camera. Get an external keyboard if you're using a laptop, and think about the space your video calling in. You can also turn off the camera if you want to move around a bit.
Cognitive load is at maximum
Solution: This once again comes down to switching off the camera and giving yourself an audio-only break. Here, however, Bailenson suggests you actually turn your entire body away from the screen in order to escape "gestures that are perceptually realistic but socially meaningless."
