    Amazing theorist, field worker, and quantitative researcher. Barham141, it is more broadly under social cognition, and more specifically non-verbal communication. Even more specifically, under facial expression. You could study recognition or production of such emotional facial expressions. I’m interested in his handwriting idea now…

  9. 666noft says:

    He’s a psychologyist.
    All the lies stuff is his own work. He has worked with it for about 25 years
    So you can’t really be like Ekman or have his job…

  10. 666noft says:

    The METT stuff??
    You can buy it from his homepage

  11. Danielakawmd says:

    I’ve been scoring on average 96% on the METT system too – I’ve also got a couple of 100% on the advanced training which I was pleased about. But does this really mean we can see them easily in real life?

    Watching an expression flash on a screen is a lot easier than actually seeing the expression in real life, when someone is talking, isnt it?

  12. buckckck says:

    where can i get the cd’s he’s talkin ’bout????

  13. buckckck says:

    I wanna be like ekman,..
    how do you call that??
    his job???

    You’ll need to major in affective neuroscience…it is a branch of behavioural and cognitive neuroscience

    I know my last lecturer called face reading an pseudo science, but I also do know that he did say it because I am certain about what I believe

  16. icumbloodisshit says:

    i aso would love to know this please message me if you find out.

  17. givemeandy says:

    So you’re saying that Dr. Ekman, named one of the 100 most eminent psychologists of the 20th century is responsible for crap that’s been proven time and time again to work?

    What I find interesting is you say this is the best gay pick-up spot on the net. In order to know that, you’d have to go to every gay pick-up spot first, wouldn’t ya?

    Which leads me to my next question– what are you doin here if it’s so infested with ‘queers’?

    Go pick on a scientologist or something.

  18. ytertyu says:

    congrats u midget punk, now u are certified talentless faggot Gook .. Micro expression crap is cargo cult science !! With queers like u coming here this thread everyday becoming more like the best gay pick-up spot on the net

  19. alanarusso18 says:

    Such a great interview, thz for posting!

  20. givemeandy says:

    For your information, I trained using Dr. Ekman’s METT system, and scored a 96% accuracy rate in the METT advanced test. I’m now certified as an expert in micro-expressions by Dr. Ekman, so that would be what I’m doing here.

    I’m wondering what a trash talking child like you is doing on this video. Go to a stupid Chris Crocker video and jerk yourself there, punk.

    Have a nice one.

  21. CoolBallRob says:

    what field of psychology would I have to major in to be able to do what dr. paul ekman does.

  22. ZMortimer says:

    He was sitting so still I was wondering whether it was a still image until he spoke.

  23. jjmanutd says:

  24. Lasmus says:
