Lecture
Practically everyone perfectly understands the language of the movement of politicians, because we know that politicians constantly pretend that they believe in something they absolutely do not believe in, and they pretend that they are not at all what they really are. They spend most of their time pretending, dodging, dodging, deceiving, hiding emotions and feelings, hiding behind smoke screens and mirrors, welcoming imaginary friends in the crowd. But we instinctively feel that their bodies are sending us contradictory signals. Therefore, we prefer to see politicians at close range in order to bring them to the clear water.
What signal tells us that the politician is lying?
His lips move.
For one television program, we conducted an experiment. This time we used the local tourist office. Tourists entered the office to get information about the sights and places of interest in the city. They were sent to the counter, where they talked with a bureau employee - a young man with blond hair and a mustache, in a white shirt and tie. After a few minutes of conversation, the young man leaned under the counter to get the booklets. And then from there came a completely different man - shaved, with dark hair, in a blue shirt and without a tie. He continued to talk with a tourist from the same place where the first employee interrupted. Surprisingly, almost half of the tourists did not notice that she was talking to another person. Neither men nor women paid attention either to the change in the character of the body language or to the completely different appearance of the interlocutor. If you do not have the innate ability to read body language signals, you are likely to miss important information. In this book, we will tell you about what you do not notice.
Kinesika (other Greek: κίνησις - movement) -
KINESICA (DR. GREEK. ΚΊΝΗΣΙΣ - MOVEMENT) —– a set of body movements (gestures, facial expressions) used in the process
human interaction (with the exception of the movements of the speech apparatus). Kinesika studies the reflection of human behavior in its non-verbal manifestations, which include facial expressions, pantomime, “vocal facial expressions” (intonation, timbre), spatial pattern (zone, territory), expression, which can be decisive in the interpretation of pronounced statements.
Kinesics
KINESIC MEANS Kinetic agents are visually perceived movements of another person that perform an expressively regulatory function in communication. Kinesics include expressive movements manifested in facial expressions, poses, gestures and looks.
1. Facial expressions. A special role in transmitting information is given to facial expressions - facial muscle movements
MIMIKA: A SPECIAL ROLE IN THE TRANSMISSION OF INFORMATION IS GIVEN TO MIMIKA - THE MOVEMENT OF THE FACE MUSCLES
Facial expressions are expressive changes in the face. It reflects the mental state of a person, attitude to the environment, the speaker’s own statements and actions. In the eyes and in the whole appearance of the speaker there is as much eloquence as in his words.
2. A look. A look, or visual contact, which is a very important part of communication, is very closely related to facial expressions.
SIGHT. VISUAL VISIT OR VISUAL CONTACT IS VERY CLOSELY CONNECTED WITH MIMIC
IMPORTANT PART OF COMMUNICATION Using the eyes, the most accurate signals about the state of a person are transmitted, since the expansion and contraction of the pupils are not subject to conscious control. Thus, not only facial expression carries information about a person, but also his gaze.
3. Pose - this is the position of the human body, typical for a given culture, an elementary unit of spatial behavior

UNIT OF SPATIAL HUMAN BEHAVIOR. The main semantic content of the pose consists in the individual placing his body in relation to the interlocutor.

HEAD, THE MEANING OF WHICH IS UNDERSTANDING FOR COMMON PARTIES. In the process of communication do not forget about congruency,
i.e., about the coincidence of gestures and speech utterances. Speech utterances and the accompanying gestures must match. The contradiction between gestures and the meaning of statements is a signal of lies.
