Why blinking can reveal if someone is really listening to you or not
Subtle changes in blinking patterns reveal a listener's true engagement. When people concentrate on understanding speech, their blink rate often slows. This indicates mental effort and absorption of information. Conversely, rapid blinking can signal distraction or disinterest. Observing blink rhythm alongside other body language offers deeper insights into attentive listening. These quiet signals can transform how conversations are perceived.
