Non-verbal communication has always intrigued me. I really enjoy the television show “Lie to Me,” which airs Mondays on Fox. The show focuses on the scientific side of reading non-verbal clues in the face, body and voice to determine if someone is lying. Tim Roth stars as the world’s leading deception expert, and his team works on a variety of criminal cases.
Though they can tell when someone is lying, they don’t know why the person is lying. And that makes the show all the more interesting.
Here are some tests to see how well you can detect a lie. To learn more about behavioral science, check out Dr. Paul Ekman’s site. He offers a free newsletter and a blog. He was also voted TIME Magazine’s Top 100 Most Influential People of 2009.
Have a refreshing and productive day!
