Can you guess the mood of the interlocutor by his facial expressions?
During a conversation, you should carefully monitor not only the speech of the interlocutor, but also his facial expressions. Sometimes she is able to tell about the true mood and intentions of a person much more than words. By the way, the ability to understand another by his facial expression is given not only to people, but also to our smaller brothers. Not so long ago, psychologist Stanley Coren made a statement – dogs are very sensitive and attentive to the owner’s facial expressions. It is curious that a negative impression on dogs is made not only by an elevated and formidable voice, frowned eyebrows and a disgruntled look. No less than they are scared away by the motionless, like a mannequin, expression on the face. According to psychologists, indifference and anger for dogs are on the same scale. By the way, pokerface also scares people away, because they perceive its owner as a smug person, with high self-esteem or hiding personal dislike. Motionless faces, according to scientists, also scare babies – they begin to worry, cry, their heart rate increases, and stress hormones are released into the blood.
