Astonishing research. And a lesson students desperately need to learn: everything is possible. Never quit your research projects and never abandon your ideas just because the whole rest of the world thinks you should.
He's one hell of an intellect. It just goes to show how much intelligence and creativity can break barriers. Literally. It's a breakthrough. If there is one psychologist I admire after Freud, it's got to be him. All I wish is for a long chat with him :D Aahh, dreams ;)
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...
@EliT3snipa I believe I never said "all people", but one thing I can assure you...recently on my clinical practice, you don't believe how many people come by and say things like "well obviously I broke up with him/her / I've quit my job because I saw X and Y / etc etc" because they "saw something on the face". It's unreal. Non-verbal language IT IS a science, and a very good one thanks to ekman,a science that takes years of formation on psychology to master..So respect my opinion on that yes?
@xirishmagicx Yes I do think so. I don't agree with all his theories. But he like Netwon, made a simple daily life observation into one of the most widely used pyschological therapies. His pyschoanalytical/dynamic theory. People need to talk, being social being, and he just used that ! I think that is a reason why I really admire him. And that I believe to be one of his most intelligent theories. I don't agree with most of the others, but that doesnt mean I view it or him condescendingly.
Paul Ekman's new book with The Dalai Lama, called "Emotional Awareness" is a must read for anyone interested in the study of emotion and finding balance and compassion in there lives!
@EliT3snipa Indeed. But, I don't go trying to understand mechanics just because I watch Night Rider. Ekman has technical knowledge that it only makes sense to colleagues. I know, everyone thinks they know psychology. I'm not here to burst your bubble, keep watching the show, learning how to read faces (hilarious), eventually the fad will die. But just because I've struck a nerve, don't pretend that "popular psychology" isn't a serious problem. In short, Ekman didn't produced "lie to me".
@LordSkioN He put himself in the 'angry' state in order to recall the memory of a story faster. It wasn't a consequence of his thoughts, it was a procedure. Think of when you want to recall a happy story: first thing that you do is you smile :)
@xirishmagicx So yes, I do think he is worthy of admiration. If not in awe of him, to a certain degree at least. Ha ! Sorry for the late reply, I have been tied down with exams. And I think I could hold a conversation with you about pyschologists...? Cheers !
Men can grow beards and somewhat cover their face, women not. is there a difference in reading faces of either a male or female, if so how does this affect culture in general?
@ah v yes, there's one instance when he met the Dalai Lama, google "Paul Ekman Dalai Lama" and search for the UA-cam clip. I won't provide the link simply because I don't want people to misinterpret as a troll link.
u r lying in reply to ah v, paul ekman lies several times in this interview, see what lies he tells especially when he gives a reason for becoming a psychologist. One of his weakness is that he is mentally disturbed by violence even in movies. He lacks courage. I am not actually calling him a coward.
This is the guy that can actulley tell if ur lyin by the look on ur face this is where the producers for lie to me got the idea. PS Lie To Me is the best show ever
@EliT3snipa Well...actually, ekman produced the theoretical know-how on non-verbal language has a technically dense and complex subject. Maybe you should read some of his academic work, because in doing so you'll realize that ekman is far from your everyday psychologist and that the language used isn't for "the rest of the word". Sorry but ekman and coº existed before Lie to Me, and maybe people should understand that, and actually read the academic work. But tv is better right?
I just watched later interview where he is talking about the Dalai lama and he reveals he disagrees with him. That might be the source of his "lie" indication. He didn't agree with him so he was not telling the truth when saying he enjoyed his visit. Likely at a later date, he was able to figure out why he felt that way.
Now, what's really interesting, at 42:18 when Dr. Ekman talks about the visits with the Dalai lama if you watch close you see the micro expression of disgust as his top lip goes up and nose wrinkles.
@vendurra "you'd know that most of the language from the book was used in the show" Over simplified... And you do know that ekman wrote books for "common people" (telling lies, emotions revealed) and books for the academic person...and in those...no the language is far from "the same" used in the show. But honestly, like I said, I'm not here to burst anyone's bubble...
1. Your trying to read Paul. 2. This is one long video 3. The interviewer is pale as a corpse 4. I lost track of WTF they were talking about a minute into the video. 5. Interviewer is Ned Flanders.
44:33 or so, when he was touching his nose.. should I interpret that as a nose scratch.. or is he lying about the number of years he's teaching the police ....
@paulthecoolest Not funny at all :-) and is actually the root cause of resistance to psychology. Our psychological defences mirror our physical need for protection. In much the same we way we would instinctively protect our life from physical threat, we instinctively protect our psychological concept of self from threat. Without overcoming this initial instinctive barrier, no form of therapy is going to help. The therapist's first task is to overcome the instinctive need to defend and protect.
I feel slightly more at ease knowing that the pioneering researcher in this potentially big brother, thought crime field is an ethical man. Then again maybe I should be wary of the master of deception. Hmmm
i cant say whether or not a god exists of course but i know the monarchial god that christianity portrays is not real. of course people who are involved with religion do good things, but religion isnt necessary for that. religion is the only thing that makes good people do bad things because they believe they are committing eternal truths sent from a god. we can come to rational conclusions on how to act to make this life and human society wonderful without irrational beliefs
@Helenabu Are you really a mental professional? Because here you seem a mental patient. Just look at your language and constant aggressiveness. If you're really a professional, I feel sorry for it, but again, there are inadequate professional in all areas.
Astonishing research. And a lesson students desperately need to learn: everything is possible. Never quit your research projects and never abandon your ideas just because the whole rest of the world thinks you should.
I never thought an hour of two talking heads could be so compelling and interesting.
Paul ekman is my hero, I have read 5 of his books.
He's one hell of an intellect. It just goes to show how much intelligence and creativity can break barriers. Literally. It's a breakthrough. If there is one psychologist I admire after Freud, it's got to be him. All I wish is for a long chat with him :D
Aahh, dreams ;)
Thanx for adding this video

holy crap I LOVE this guy. he's such a legend. :D
i want to buy the micro expressions training tool..but i dunt knw if i can find it in singaporeT_T

what field of psychology would I have to major in to be able to do what dr. paul ekman does.
33:50 very insightful q&a!
Paul Ekman's new book with The Dalai Lama, called "Emotional Awareness" is a must read for anyone interested in the study of emotion and finding balance and compassion in there lives!
@givemeandy They're posted.
honey for my ears

best comment ever!
In 28:49 P. Ekman states that the technology will develop within 5 years. This is the first time that an extrapolation came out:)
@naurispunk what are you talkin about? dont you listen that symphony?
Flips off camera at 26:26....odd
@LordSkioN seeing as hes trying to think of something to get him angry i dont think it was involuntary
Wish he would come down to UCI so i could learn from him.
@LordSkioN He put himself in the 'angry' state in order to recall the memory of a story faster. It wasn't a consequence of his thoughts, it was a procedure. Think of when you want to recall a happy story: first thing that you do is you smile :)

he actually advises lie to me, he's part of the team that makes the show.

Your words speak for me. I no longer need to reply.
. . . . . . . . . . wow . . . . . . . . . . .
He was also rubbing his nose on and off, which may indicate a lie (or his nose just could have been itchy).
This is the guy that can actulley tell if ur lyin by the look on ur face this is where the producers for lie to me got the idea. PS Lie To Me is the best show ever

@aprilzLuV Those aren't true microexpressions. And they intentionally show them so as to allow the audience to draw their own conclusions.
Now, what's really interesting, at 42:18 when Dr. Ekman talks about the visits with the Dalai lama if you watch close you see the micro expression of disgust as his top lip goes up and nose wrinkles.
@Barham141
Psycho-therapist
as he said in the video
@vendurra "you'd know that most of the language from the book was used in the show"
Over simplified...
And you do know that ekman wrote books for "common people" (telling lies, emotions revealed) and books for the academic person...and in those...no the language is far from "the same" used in the show.
But honestly, like I said, I'm not here to burst anyone's bubble...
At 3:12 he presses his teeth together, and a bit his lips too. Isn't it a sign of anger?
@deceiver123m good answer.
@LordSkioN i thought the exact same thing
haha, ned flanders. the canadian version, if you know what i mean :D
Jesus Christ said that "My sheep listen to my voice; I know them, and they follow me" - JESUS CHRIST IS MY GOD, MY LORD, MY SAVIOR
It would suck if he was my dad. I could never lie
Was he lying when he said he wasn't afraid of mice?
1. Your trying to read Paul.
2. This is one long video
3. The interviewer is pale as a corpse
4. I lost track of WTF they were talking about a minute into the video.
5. Interviewer is Ned Flanders.
Share
Damn it! My replies always look like standalone comments! What's up with that??
Yeah, your groundbreaking research is probably a lot better. Silly Ekman; what does he have to be proud of?
44:33 or so, when he was touching his nose.. should I interpret that as a nose scratch.. or is he lying about the number of years he's teaching the police ....
How the hell do idiotic comments end up on a video as intellectual as this?
@paulthecoolest Not funny at all :-) and is actually the root cause of resistance to psychology.

I KNOW! Right? He seems so smug, too. lol
Is he telling the truth about having a unique opportunity to meet Dalai Lama
42:33 - 42:34
And after that, a lot of expressions with the mouth... until "margaret"
Oh hell you guys can't hope to read the master himself can you? xD
@LordSkioN
How was that interesting? ... at all.
I could be a woman, you never know. Then all of that would make sense.
It seems like a micro-expression of disgust when he talks about the Dalai Lama.
lol
i think im a 3d
Someone watches too much Lie To Me.
@givemeandy weed
@Helenabu Are you really a mental professional? Because here you seem a mental patient. Just look at your language and constant aggressiveness. If you're really a professional, I feel sorry for it, but again, there are inadequate professional in all areas.
Because we grew up watching the lies.
