The Impact of Fear on Communication

The connection between fear and communication is significant, as fear can inhibit charisma and effective interactions. A study revealed that individuals exposed to the scent of fear sweat exhibited increased fear responses themselves, highlighting how we can unconsciously pick up on the emotional states of others.
