Frequency of some signs nonverbal behavior in misleading statement

Abstract

The objective of this study was to assess the objective observer to determine whether there is a difference in the incidence of some forms of nonverbal behaviors referred to as common indicators of lying in previous studies. Cluster analysis showed that the two groups are formed of non-verbal behavior. The first group includes smiling, illustration, hand and finger movements, movements of the legs and feet, while the second group consists of looking away, blinking eyes, self-adaptors, head movements, body movements and noting the position of the body. Interpreting this finding, together with the findings of the ranking of non-verbal behavior in the responses based on the arithmetic mean, it can be concluded that the behavior of the first group (smiling, illustration, hand and finger movements, movements of the legs and feet) is more noticeable in the nonverbal behavior of persons, which amounts to a false statement.

Osnovni cilj istraživanja je da se prema oceni nezavisnih posmatrača utvrdi da li postoji razlika u učestalosti pojedinih znakova neverbalnog ponašanja, koji su u prethodnim istraživanjima navedeni kao uobičajeni znakovi obmanjivanja. Primena klaster-analize pokazala je da se formiraju dve grupe znakova neverbalnog ponašanja. Prvu grupu čine: osmehivanje, ilustrovanje, pokreti šake i prstiju, pokreti nogu i stopala, dok drugu grupu čine skretanje pogleda, treptanje očima, samododirivanje, pokreti glave, pokreti trupa i promena položaja tela. Interpretiranjem ovog nalaza, zajedno sa nalazom o rangiranju znakova neverbalnog ponašanja na osnovu aritmetičkih sredina, može se zaključiti da se znakovi iz prve grupe (osmehivanje, ilustrovanje, pokreti šake i prstiju, pokreti nogu i stopala) češće primećuju u neverbalnom ponašanju osoba koje su lagale.
