The Tells
In poker, they call it a “tell.” A subtle cut that gives away the weak hand behind the player’s bravado. Liars have their tells too, and Pamela Meyer offers some of the most common, drawn from research, interrogation methods and facial recognition techniques taught in intelligence training programs, police academies and universities.
*An asymmetrical smile or frown, or shrugging with just one shoulder.
*Extended eye contact (honest people only look you in the eye 60% of the time).
*Sitting completely still, or moving just one body part (a single jiggling leg or waving arm).
*Flashes of anger or surprise that are quickly repressed.
*Fidgety, quick touches to eyes or mouth.
*Over-talkativeness.
*Speaking more slowly and deliberately than usual.
*Denials and vague statements (“I don’t know what you mean…” “It was a busy day.”)
*Repeating questions or phrases to stall for time.
