A person often encounters situations where it is difficult to understand whether they are being presented with true information or lies. Having the skills to analyze human behavior can play an important role in the life of each of us. The ability to recognize a liar in a person will save time, preserve health, protect yourself from negative emotions, save money, and sometimes even life.
Many famous personalities have devoted their work to the study of lie recognition. These issues were addressed by such famous persons as former FBI employee Joe Navarro, doctor of forensic psychology Lynn ten Brinke, behavioral analyst Dr. Lillian Glass. The scientific literature, which appeared because of an in-depth study of lies by these people, was highly appreciated around the world.
By carrying out a behavioral analysis of liar people, scientists have proven that rolling eyes can indicate insincerity. By giving out a lie, a person will feel psychological discomfort and resort to various methods of disguising it. Therefore, psychology experts recommend paying attention to their behavior to reveal lies.
1. A change in the position of the head
Changing the position of the head, when a question was said or just before the answer, it would be very likely that the person was lying.
2. Abnormal respiratory rhythm.
A deceiving person, uttering a lie, worries at a reflex level. This leads to a change in the rhythm of breathing. At this moment, the heartbeat becomes more frequent, blood flow increases, breathing becomes heavy, the voice weakens.
3. Repetitive phrases and words.
The repetition of phrases aloud is observed when a person tries not only to an opponent but also to convince himself of the said lies. It is also convenient to resort to such a verbal maneuver to extend the time for thinking over the next portion of lies.
4. The message with a large amount of information
Researchers have noticed that the information provided by a large stream to describe a little thing is untrue. Liars try to convince the interlocutor, hiding behind openness, sincerity, and honesty. Therefore, a smile and warmth must be able to recognize. For example, a real smile will be displayed not only in the eyes but in the wrinkles near them. A forced smile will immediately expose the eyes.
5. Touching the lips

Covering his mouth with his hands, a liar man unconsciously emphasizes that he does not want to tell all or all of the truth, does not want to face problems. Thus, the hand becomes an obstacle to interaction with the interlocutor.
6. The desire to cover some parts of the body
Lawyers with trial experience claim that evidence incriminating a liar forces him to automatically cover his neck, stomach, chest, and even his head with his hand.
7. Reflex jerking legs
In a nervous and uncomfortable state, the body reflexively begins to give out lies. This is especially characteristic of the legs. The legs that began to move show that their owner wants to quickly move away from the circumstances. In addition, they often turn to the exit.
8. Difficulties in speaking common words
The analysis of interrogations by video regularly confirms that it is becoming increasingly difficult for a lying person to speak more and more. This factor is associated with the nervous system, which in a stressed state reduces the release of saliva, which leads to drying of the oral cavity.
9. Gaze
Liars try not to keep prolonged contact with the interlocutor “eye to eye.” However, some of them go to the trick and deliberately keep a long, cold look, trying to control the situation and manipulate the interlocutor (investigator). But sometimes a quick blink can give out a liar.
According to the above signs, a liar can be recognized. To do this, it is necessary to show excessive curiosity and start asking complex questions, thus removing a person from a comfortable state.
