- Eye blocking can be observed when individuals redirect their attention away from others by looking down or moving to a private space, indicating a desire to avoid distractions and maintain focus on a specific task or conversation.
- In instances of lying, individuals engage in eye blocking to reduce the amount of visual data they need to process, allowing them to maintain their deception more effectively by minimizing external stimuli.
- Various notorious cases like Chris Watts, Scott Peterson, Ted Bundy, and Susan Smith demonstrate behaviors linked to deception, such as eye blocking, tongue protrusion, and other body language cues associated with dishonesty.
- Behavioral cues such as shoulder shrugging are also indicators of uncertainty or lack of confidence, commonly observed when individuals are unsure about a situation or information being shared.
- Lip-locking, where individuals press their lips together or make them disappear, is a sign of discomfort or displeasure with what they are hearing or seeing, often signaling a disagreement or hidden emotions.
