Abstract: We studied which nonverbal or verbal self-presentation is more dominant in Social Media. In the study, the subjects were shown with the picture that contained selfies（ nonverbal） and texts（ verbal） of a person on social media. We prepared four types of self-presentation: self-effacing （verbal and nonverbal） / self-enhancing （verbal and nonverbal） / self-enhancing （nonverbal） and self-effacing （verbal） / self-effacing （nonverbal） and self-enhancing （verbal）. The participants were asked about their impressions of the senders when the nonverbal and verbal presentations were either inconsistent or consistent. The results of the experiment suggested that the impact of nonverbal selfpresentation on the participants were stronger than the verbal.
