In this study, to clarify the relation between utterance and body movements of speakers in greeting, we have conducted the experiment of greeting by two persons. After the experiment, the relation between utterance and body movement durations was analyzed. As a result, high synchronization between speakers was observed in all experimental condition. However, in the condition of different social standings, there was little synchronization between utterance and body movement rhythm in subjects. From these results, we discussed about mechanism of synchronization between utterance and body movement in greeting.
