(a) Response verbalization. Proportion of complying (n = 724) and rejecting responses (n = 75) that involve a verbal component. Each symbol represents the proportion of verbalization for a given response type in the corresponding language. Most complying responses, in most languages, are produced without words, whereas nearly all rejections are verbalized. Only two rejections, one in Cha’palaa and one in Siwu, out of seven and six respectively, were not verbalized. Some responses could not be coded as verbal or nonverbal due to partial information in the recording, for example if the speech was inaudible. (b) Giving reasons. Proportion of complying (n = 737) and rejecting responses (n = 90) that are accompanied by a reason. Each symbol represents the proportion of reasons for a given response type in the corresponding language. Some responses could not be coded due to partial information in the recording, for example if the recruitee was off camera at the time of responding or if the speech was inaudible.
