Unusual Behavior
-
Liars can exhibit signs of discomfort or anxiety by unusual or atypical behavior, such as displaying nervous movements and sweating. It's important to first observe and establish how an individual normally behaves.
Small Facial Expressions
-
Micro-expressions, or small facial movements, can indicate true feelings in someone who is trying to hide them. These expressions are brief and so may be difficult to detect without careful observation. Micro-expressions include movements of the mouth and eyebrows.
-
Body Language
-
Liars can also express anxiety by gestures or body movements such as shrugging or excessive motions with their hands. However, it's important to note that anxiety does not necessarily mean someone is lying.
