You might expect a liar to struggle with eye contact, when lying through his teeth. But a study by University of Michigan researchers suggests that liars may look their questioners in the eye more often than people telling the truth. People who are lying also wave both hands around far more than those who are being honest. 你可能会认为，骗子撒谎时眼神会乱瞟。但是密歇根大学的一项研究调查显示：与讲实话的人相比，骗子看质问者眼睛的次数更多。正在撒谎的人挥手次数也远比诚实的人多。 Those who were lying were found more likely to have animated hand movements, make strong eye contact, nod their heads, and scowl. Researchers also found that liars were more likely to say “um” and to use pronouns that distanced themselves from the action, such as “he”or “she”rather than “I”or “we.” 研究人员还发现，骗子的手部活动可能更多、眼神交流频繁，并且会频频点头和皱眉。此外，撒谎的人更喜欢用“嗯”以及一些撇清关系的代词，比如“她”和“他”，而不是“我”或者“我们”。 The same gestures were also used by some people telling the truth, but to a lesser extent: 25% of truthful people gestured with both hands, compared to 40% of liars. Sixty percent of truthful people looked directly at the questioner, compared to 70% of liars. 当然，讲真话的人也会做类似的手势，但人数较少，只占25%左右；与之相比，撒谎者中做这种手势的占到40%。诚实的人中有60%的人会直视质问者，而骗子中，该比例则占到70%。 |
