SPOTTING SCOUNDRELS

A recent issue of Scientific Mind discussed studies of truthfulness and physical signals. The bottom line: Opportunists or liars tend to display a cluster of four cues: hand touching, face touching, crossing arms, and leaning away.

When hiring an employee or investigating a matter, make sure to challenge the interviewee. If he or she starts displaying these gestures, beware!!
