1
Nonverbals are anything that communicates but is not a word.
2
The public knows them as body language.
3
How we dress, how we walk, have meaning.
4
And we use that to interpret what's in the mind of the person.
5
My name is Joe Navarro, and for 25 years, I was a special agent with the FBI.
6
My job was to catch spies.
7
Most of my career I spent within the National Security Division.
8
A lot of it had to do with looking at specific targets, and then it was about, well, how do we get in their heads,
9
and how do we neutralize them?
10
Our security is based on nonverbals.
11
We look at the person through the peephole.
12
We look at who's behind us at the ATM machine.
13
We know from the research that most of us select our mates based on non -verbals.
14
So we may think we're very sophisticated, but in fact we are never in a state where we're not transmitting information.
15
There's a lot of myths out there.
16
The ones that stand out is if you cross your arms, that it's a blocking behavior.
17
That's just nonsense.
18
Even when you don't like the person that is in front of you, this isn't to block them out, it's actually to self -soothe.
19
Because in essence, it's a self -hug.
20
When you're sitting at a movie and you're watching, you're going to cross your arms.
21
You're waiting for somebody, you tend to do this.
22
What's interesting is we do this behavior more in public than in private.
23
The other one that really stands out is, as we think about something, we may look in a certain way.
24
As we process the information, we may look in another way.
25
It's certainly not indicative of deception, and it really shouldn't be used that way.
26
All we can say is the person is processing the information.
27
The other misconceptions are that if the person clears their throat, touches their nose, or covers their mouth, they're lying.
28
We do these behaviors as self -soothers.
29
They're pacifying behaviors.
30
Scientifically and empirically, there's just no Pinocchio effect.
31
And people who prattle that and say, well we can detect deception because the person touches their nose
32
or covers their mouth that's just sheer nonsense
33
we humans are lousy at detecting deception espionage work is often nowhere near what we see in movies
34
and in one of the cases we had information from another country saying
35
you have an american we think is actually a mole who somehow entered the united states
36
He's able to pass as an American, but he's here working for a hostile intelligence service.
37
And just fortuitously, he was videographed coming out of a flower shop.
38
We're looking at the video and everybody in our small unit, we were saying, well, there's not much there.
39
You know, he's coming out of the shop, getting in his car.
40
And I said, stop the film right there.
41
Just as he came out of the shop, he took the flowers and most
42
Americans tend to hold the flowers by the stock so that the flowers are up.
43
This individual took them and grabbed the stock and then held the flowers so that they were facing down.
44
And I said, that's how they carry flowers in Eastern Europe.
45
Rather than confront him about, are you a spy, I decided to do what's called a presumptive.
46
So as I sat there with him, I said, would you like to know how we know?
47
And he had this look on his face and I said, it was the flowers, and then he confessed.
48
When I came into law enforcement, I thought it was all about the confession.
49
It's really about FaceTime.
50
In my 25 years in the FBI, it was a rarity that a person didn't eventually
51
reveal what I needed to know because we would sit down
52
and have these very lengthy conversations
53
I look at behaviors to do an assessment what is this
54
person transmitting in relations to any stimuli my further questioning comes from my observing these behaviors the first thing
55
I look at is I look at the hair does it
56
look healthy does it look well -groomed the forehead is very interesting
57
because a lot of times we reveal stress a lot of the things
58
that we have gone through life are often etched in the forehead i look at the eyes to see
59
if they're red
60
or not enough sleep this small area here between the eyes called the glabella it's one of the first areas
61
that reveals information to us most often when we don't like something we do that bunny nose of I don't like.
62
We don't really know what our lips look like, and we tend to compress them when something bothers us.
63
When something really bothers us, we tend to suck them in the mandibula and look at the cheeks.
64
We may do something like this.
65
We'll rub our tongue against the inside of the cheek.
66
But when we try to hide it, then it tells me that this person is trying to do some perception management.
67
And if they are, I want to know why.
68
At the neck, I want to see if there's any head tilt, because head tilt, the person is more relaxed.
69
The minute the head tilt goes away, there's usually some issue.
70
I'm looking at the shoulders.
71
You ask somebody a question and they don't know, both shoulders shoot up very quickly.
72
And then I look at the hands.
73
When something's troubling us, we tend to stiffen our fingers, interlace them, and almost like a teepee,
74
we move our hands back and forth very slowly slowly this is to be differentiated from
75
when we do the steeple which we do in this position
76
when something's at issue we tend to put our hands on our hips
77
and we become very territorial this is called arms akimbo
78
but look how it changes when we put our thumbs forward
79
and then it becomes one of more of I'm inquisitive
80
but I also look for any behaviors of ventilating
81
because men tend to ventilate at the neck
82
and we do at the very instant something bothers us
83
and then i look at the legs to see
84
if there's any brushing of the legs with the hands
85
which is again to pacify
86
and then the feet do i see any behaviors such as wiggling of the feet kicking of the feet
87
if i ask a question and all of a sudden the feet withdraw
88
and are crossed perhaps the person feels a little threatened by
89
that question so
90
when we study non -verbals it's not about making judgments it's about assessing what is this person transmitting in that moment
91
it really is looking at an individual
92
and saying what are they transmitting we're all transmitting at all times we choose the clothes
93
that we wear how we groom ourselves how we dress but also how do we carry ourselves?
94
Are we coming to the office on this particular day with a lot of energy, or are we coming in with a different sort of pace?
95
And what we look for are differences in behavior down to
96
the minutiae of what is this individual's posture as they're walking down the street?
97
Are they on the inside of the sidewalk, on the outside?
98
Can we see his blink rate?
99
Can we see how often he's looking at his watch?
100
I know your blink rate is around eight, eight times a minute, but you don't know that.
101
You're not sitting there counting.
102
All these things factor in because they're transmitting information.
103
Now it's up to us to then use that information to say,
104
okay, we need to marshal resources to be on that individual right now. So in most
105
Western cultures, the first time people touch is when they shake hands.
106
Touching becomes that important because we can always remember a time when we shook hands with someone and we didn't like that.
107
It's also the first time when our bodies release these bonding chemicals that say, I like this person or I don't like this person.
108
And so, handshaking is both necessary and essential in most cultures.
109
All right.
110
Ladies, hi, I'm Joe Navarro.
111
Joe, I'm Laura.
112
Laura, how are you?
113
And you are?
114
Katija.
115
Katija, how are you?
116
I'm good.
117
Let me ask you this.
118
Let's back up a little bit.
119
Is this comfortable for you?
120
Yes.
121
Yeah it's a little bit more comfortable
122
but it's not for you is it all right thank you all right
123
so keep talking what we've done here is we've talked about the importance of space
124
and comfort they don't realize is how much further apart they are now standing and it's
125
because we have brought this subject up to make them comfortable about saying hey
126
it's okay to be comfortable at your perfect distance and
127
so now we see when they rock they rock away from each other
128
and they create this space if you notice their feet tend to move around more.
129
There's a dynamic going on here where they're kind of trying to find, well, what is the perfect space?
130
What is the perfect distance?
131
And we know that they're unsettled because of the high degree of movement that's going on.
132
Check.
133
Poker's an interesting game.
134
The similitudes of sitting across from a spy or sitting across from players, it's their reactions to a stimulus.
135
We have behaviors indicative of psychological discomfort that we use at home, at work, or at the poker table.
136
So we're gonna take a look at poker players
137
and some of the body language that you'll find at a typical poker game.
138
so we'll pause it right there so one of the things
139
that you first notice is that
140
when a table is called this is the first time many of them see each other
141
this is a great opportunity to be looking for behaviors indicative of discomfort we're gonna see the individual shifting in his chair,
142
we're gonna see one individual reaching over and grabbing his shoulder.
143
The woman, in this case, her shoulders are rather high.
144
This is a great opportunity, even before the game starts, to collect poker intelligence.
145
Alright guys, button is good.
146
So we'll stop right there.
147
Look where their hands are at.
148
Here we're looking at player number two and number three, and we notice right away that their hands are on top of the cards.
149
Some players will cage their cards, some players will put their hands directly on top and press them down.
150
And they may do that because the cards have now increased in value.
151
Player number one tends to keep his hands very close to his body.
152
Player number four, she's actually withdrawn her hands from the table.
153
Because when we like things, we tend to move our hands forward.
154
When we don't like things, we tend to move the hands away.
155
So as we look at player number three, I'm often asked about players who shuffle their chips.
156
What you're really doing is self -soothing, and this just helps you to make it through the game, and that's really all we're looking for.
157
Oh, come on!
158
Okay, so we'll stop right there.
159
Player number five is sitting there, arms crossed, you don't see a lot of activity.
160
That doesn't mean he's not transmitting a lot of information.
161
On down the line, I want to see where those thumbs of his are
162
because he holds them very close when nothing's going on.
163
But does that change as the game evolves?
164
If you're looking at nonverbals, it's often useful to look at them at double the speed
165
because all the nonverbals that are critical jump out at you as though it were a caricature.
166
all right
167
so stop right there the woman in position number four
168
you see her head moving around quite a bit player number three
169
you see a lot of activity with his hands
170
when we look at player number five now his hands are fully out
171
this is as far as we've seen them before at this point we know
172
that he's engaged and
173
that he's interested now the game is out in the open 75 to 80 percent of the information
174
we need is sitting out there.
175
What you often see is everybody's looking at their own cards or looking at the community cards rather than looking around.
176
You should be looking around to see, well, what was the reaction?
177
Because you're going to see that reaction again.
178
You know, in poker we used to say that you can have a poker face, but I encountered you can't have a poker body.
179
Somewhere it's going to be revealed.
180
When I was in college in the early 70s, there were really no courses on nonverbal communications.
181
You quickly realize that to a great extent, it's really about what you can interpret from behavior.
182
And so we talk about nonverbals because it matters, because it has gravitas, because it affects how we communicate with each other.
183
When it comes to nonverbals, this is no small matter we primarily communicate non -verbally and we always will.

什么是跟读法？
跟读法 (Shadowing) 是一种有科学依据的语言学习技巧，最初开发用于专业口译员的培训，并由多语言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。这个方法简单而强大：您在听英语母语原声的同时立即大声重复——就像是一个延迟1-2秒紧跟说话者的影子。与被动听力或语法练习不同，跟读法强迫您的大脑和口腔肌肉同时处理并模仿真实的讲话模式。研究表明它能显着提高发音准确性，语调，节奏，连读，听力理解和口语流利度——使其成为雅思口语备考和真实英语交流最有效的方法之一。
