Ep: 180 - Body Language: What Are Your Thumbs Revealing About You?

from Psychology in Everyday Life: The Psych Files · host Michael Britt

What is your body position revealing about you?  Some things are obvious - you probably know that crossed arms indicate a certain distrust.  There are also flirting gestures that I'll bet you think you know well (like women playing with their hair and men sticking out their chests), but what about your thumbs?  My thumbs?  Yes, you might well be revealing something about yourself by where you're putting them would you believe.  Listen in as I talk with Craig Baxter, owner of the website All-About-Body-Language.com who will tell us a bit more about the fascinating topic of body language.
