What qualifies as being in Rapport, with specific reference to the ways in which two peoples "physiology" matches? What part of their physiology? How accurately can we actually derive thoughts from a gross Physiological state? What "sociological" studies reveal this? The quote marks their reveal my contempt for sociology, not your assertion. I understand the personal-level position on studies the problem is that we need to clarify what actually "is going on". The placebo effect, and subconscious suggestion may be what's happening. In other words, it might not matter the specific action of PRing. This doesn't make it less valuable necessarily. I like to think of it as the desire to understand how something works, rather than the workingness of something, because knowing how can become very useful.
