can you tell if someone is being straight up with you just by their facial expressions? on this site,http://www.bbc.co.uk/science/humanbo...surveys/smileswatch 20 quick vids of people smiling. then choose whether its a real or fake smile. pretty interesting. i scored 15 out of 20.:D:D:D:D:D
Kind of interesting. 18 of 20, but thought I did worse until it was scored.
Law enforcement has developed ways to tell if people are lying by certain eye-movements. When I was in the insurance field I used that plus "body language" to tell if prospects were being honest or not. It's an interesting study.:cool:
Same here. 18 of 20. I missed a fake and a real smile. That was a good post chiggers. That goes to some of the things I've posted on in the past with relation to "tells" or efferent cues. It's an important element of being aware of your surroundings and being safe!
I got 17 out of 20. Interesting test!
I don't think the eye movement thing is reliable. I think it shows nervousness, not dishonesty. If someone is pulled over by the police, they are likely going to be nervous since they are unaware of any law they might have broken. Perhaps they didn't know they had a taillight out, or something.
I believe that eye movement observations are fairly reliable. They can be overcome with practice (insert your fav poiticians name here).
16 out of 20. That was a fun test, I suspect we'd all do better meeting a person face to face because there are so many other non-verbal signals that aren't picked up just by a head and shoulders camera shot. That eye movement thing has been shown to have a strong cultural bias as well. It's pretty accurate for the "average" North American caucasian demographic, and that's about it.
