Identify the actual assignment question/prompt and clean it: remove any rubric, grading criteria, point allocations, meta-instructions to the student or writer, due dates, and any lines that are just telling someone how to complete or submit the assignment. Also remove obviously repetitive or duplicated lines or sentences so that the cleaned instructions are concise and non-redundant. Only keep the core assignment question and any truly essential context.

The remaining cleaned text is the assignment instructions. Use exactly this cleaned text as the basis for the paper.

Paper For Above instruction

Discuss the importance of eye contact in interpersonal communication, exploring its role in conveying messages, expressing emotions, and establishing relationships. Include research on how eye contact varies across different cultures, genders, and social settings, and analyze how personal behaviors and perceptions influence eye contact. Reflect on your own experiences with eye contact, noting instances where it was effective or problematic, and consider how this nonverbal cue impacts social interactions and perceptions of confidence and likability. Support your discussion with credible academic sources and real-life examples, emphasizing the significance of appropriate eye contact in professional and personal contexts.
