of Emotions

Introduction

We can observe people’s emotions

When we “read” their bodies,

When listen to their voices and look at their faces.

Introduction

All of us communicate verbally as well as non-verbally.

For Example: “When we tense our body, press

our lips together or move our eyebrows; we are communicating non-verbally”.

“Kleinke (1986)”

With a gaze, an averted glance, or a stare we can communicate

Intimacy, Submission or Dominance.

NON Verbal Threats

Most of us are good enough at reading non-verbal cues to judge the emotions in an old silent film.

We are especially good at detecting non-verbal threats.

James Edward Hansen

In a crowd of face, a single angry face will “pop out” faster than a single happy one (Hansen and Hansen 1988).

Emotion

It is true that some people are more sensitive to these cues than

other some people can smell the situation also.

Expressions not only communicate emotions, they also amplify and regulate it.
