1. Eye contact
Eye contact is a good test of honesty. Example, when a person looks at you and continuous to do so, you know his attention is focused on you. The other, if someone can’t look you dead in the eye, then he or she isn’t playing straight.
2. Smile
Like the eyes, the smile is remarkably varied. The genuinely happy smile flashes both upper and lower teeth and is accompanied by open eyes and relaxed brows.
3. Hand Movements
Hand movements are another area where is common understanding the action. Sometimes a person brings a hand up to hismouth while talking. That gesture could be an effort to stop others from hearing or an unconscious admission of doubt or that there’s something being concealed. If hands clasped behind back, it has meaning that someone anger, frustation, or apprehension.
4. Voices rise when speakers are angry. Again, nonverbal communication reliably signals the presence of emotion, but not the specific emotion. A rising voice is associated with a variety of emotions, including anger, but also nervousness, fear, excitement, hysteria, and others. You must always consider the communicator and the context carefully.
One of the most clearly recognize expression of body language is the handshake.
That’s all my argument about body language.
Very good writing, it would be better if you elaborate; body posture, gesture, facial expression, and eye movements as you stated in your topic sentence.
Body Language
ReplyDeleteI want to give you three example of body language
1.Showing one's palms
Showing one's palms to the listeners may mean openness and honesty; hiding the palms may mean deceit. Moving the hands close to the mouth or touching the nose may also indicate deceit. It is assumed this is because in the early evolution of human kind showing open palms showed that one had no hidden weapons or purposes. In kids it can easily be seen that they hide their hands behind thier backs or put their hands in their pockets when they are lying, a more advanced version in adults is simple not showing open palms. Open palms with raised shoulders exagerate the expression, further showing "I have nothing to hide".
2.pointing with their leg or knee.
People often indicate interest by pointing with their leg or knee. Pointing at another person means interest or acceptance of said person. Pointing your body away from the one you talk to means you would rather not be talking to the person and would rather move in the direction you are pointing.
3.Silence
Silence itself can often be a form of paralanguage. It has a variety of interpretations, usually dependent on the individual. One interpretation, comprising of silence and looking at the floor or avoiding direct eye contact, often shows that a person is thinking about a problem that emotionally affects them. In Western culture, not looking into an individual's eyes often indicates deceit. Specifically, it indicates a desire to be elsewhere, motivated by the discomfort or anxiety that that may accompany dishonesty.
