不借助测谎仪 四招辨别说谎者
The four ways to tell if someone is lying to you - without resorting to a polygraph test
If you suspect someone isn't being totally honest, listen carefully to what they're saying and how - you might spot one of these four signs.
如果你怀疑某人并没有完全在说实话,请小心留意其说话内容和方式——你可能会发现以下四种迹象之一.
What was the last lie you told? If your answer is along the lines of 'so long ago, I can't remember', that's most likely a big fib - because we lie up to 200 times a day!
你上一次说了什么谎?如果你的回答是类似"太久啦,我不记得了",这可能就是个谎言——因为我们每天说谎最多可达200次!
This isn't to say you're a shady Machiavellian character. Often the lies we tell are along the lines of "I'm fine" when someone asks how you are.
这并不是说你是个阴暗的不择手段的人物.很多时候我们说的谎是类似有人问你过得怎么样,你回答"挺好的"这种.
Our motivation isn't necessarily to deceive or cover up our tracks. According to Lifehacker , we lie predominantly because "we want to connect ourselves to who we think we should be."
我们的动机并不一定是欺骗或掩盖自己的行为.根据生活类科技博客"生活骇客"(Lifehacker)的说法,我们说谎主要因为"想把真实的自己和我们认为应当成为的自己联系起来".
But if we're churning out the lies, it means others are too. And while some are innocuous and will have no impact on our life, there's a chance some will.
但如果我们自己大量撒谎,就表示别人也在这么做.且尽管有些谎言无伤大雅,对生活也毫无影响,有些却不然.
Short of forcing someone to take a polygraph test, there are four indicators.
虽然不能强制别人做测谎测试,但有四种说谎迹象.
