This is a prescriptive model (it tells you what to look for) and a foundation on which to build actual situational awareness. Not only is it a critical tool for to assess a situation, it’s a shield against the way a prosecutor attacks you. Remember the attorney pinging for weakness? Normal, abnormal and dangerous is your firewall against the most common pings. For example, when you say you saw your attacker “do a witness check,” the attorney will ask, “How do you know he wasn’t looking for his friend?” Can you explain the difference?” That explanation can spell the difference between conviction and acquittal.

Normal, everyday behavior, what is it? How do things ordinarily work? You’ll find many of these answers in social scripts. If you look into body language, communication, and etiquette, you’ll find you do know all kinds of ‘normal.’ The catch is it’s subconscious.

You need to bring it to the conscious level to understand how much you know. For example, answer these questions:

What is normal behavior in a parking lot?

How close or far from someone do you stand in line?

How far do you stand from someone in an elevator?

As numbers increase in an elevator how does your behavior change?

How do you handle it when you and a stranger try to pass through the same door?

How long do you look at a stranger?

How does someone act looking for his friend?
