INTERPERSONAL COMMUNICATION: Your Eyes Tell the Truth.

It is believed that our eyes can betray us when we tell lies. I have watched a few Hong Kong dramas where in between they mentioned about how the movement of our eyes is able to reveal the truth or lie behind our stories. And I googled it up.

Up and to the Left
Means: Visually Constructed Images (Vc)
When you asked someone to imagine a purple buffalo, this would be the direction their eyes moved in while thinking about the question as they "Visually Constructed" a purple buffalo in their mind.

Up and to the Right
Means: Visually Remembered Images (Vr)
If you asked someone what colour was their first house was, this would be the direction their eyes moved in while thinking about the question as they "Visually Remembered" the color of their childhood home.

To the Left
Means: Auditory Constructed (Ac)
Question someone to try and create the highest sound of the pitch possible in your head, this would be the direction their eyes moved in while thinking about the question as they "Auditorily Constructed" this this sound that they have never heard of.

To the Right
Means: Auditory Remembered (Ar)
Request someone to remember what their mother's voice sounds like, this would be the direction their eyes moved in while thinking about the question as they "Auditorily Remembered " this sound.

Down and to the Left
Means: Feeling / Kinesthetic (F)
Say you want someone to recall the smell of a campfire, this would be the direction their eyes moved in while thinking about the question as they used recalled a smell, feeling, or taste.

Down and To the Right
Means: Internal Dialog (Ai)
This is the direction when they talk to themselves.

Try asking yourself.

• What did you have for breakfast yesterday?
• Remember the smell from your mother's cooking?
• Imagine your best friend singing.
• What colour was your first school bag?
