How Do You Spot a Liar? Because most of us are not very good at spotting the lies people tell. If youâd like to become highly skilled at spotting a liar - You need to develop the talent of noticing and correctly reading: subtle body language changes, vocal tones, tense, word choices, and brief facial cues called âMicro-expressions.â A micro-expression is the term created by the famous psychologist, Paul Eckman whose research and real-life stories inspired the âLie to Meâ series. (The TV Series introduces this topic in a fun way). Micro-expressions are small, unconscious leaks of concealed emotion. If you ever try to hide how you really feel from someone â by pretending to be happy or sad when thatâs not how you really feel, chances are some of the real feelings will still leak through in your face. These small âtellsâ show up on your face for less than half a second. Because they are so fast, theyâre often misinterpreted or missed all together. Robert Feldman, the author of The Liar In Your Life says, âIt's very hard to tell when someone is lying⊠some indicators of deception, like facial and body language, could merely be signs of anxiety or nervousness that have nothing to do with lying." So, itâs really hard for most people to spot a liar! While some professionals like secret service agents have been trained to spot the face of aggression on a single person in a large crowd... Without training, most of us wonât even notice.
