Explanation:

An example of proxemics would be how we use space to feel comfortable while sitting or standing next to someone else; we're probably about 12 to 24 feet away from this person (in this case a public speaker, a professor).

Threat threshold may vary on how the person is feeling; if they're feeling good with the violator, then the threat threshold is high; therefore, a close distance is not a problem. But, if the person is not feeling good then the threat threshold is going to be low, making them feel uncomfortable and sensitive with a close distance with the violator.

Arousal happens when we're fully aware of stimuli; now regarding relationships, arousal makes us aware of the stimuli that relate us with other people.

Expectancy is a prediction on what will happen, but this needs to be related to previous actions that help us draw a result based on a behavior.
