The Understanding of Micro Expressions and Nonverbal Behavior

Dr. Paul Eckman, a renowned psychologist, has extensively studied nonverbal behavior and micro-expressions. Micro-expressions are brief facial expressions that occur when someone is concealing a feeling or emotion. Dr. Eckman's research has mapped the 43 muscle groups used in facial expressions and has trained law enforcement agencies in detecting deception. His work has also been the basis for the TV series 'Lie to Me' and he was a consultant for the Pixar movie 'Inside Out.'
