The manner in which your eyes blink tells just how well you are listening to a speaker. A new study from psychologists at Montreal’s Concordia University, just published in the journal Trends in Hearing, reports that your blinking frequency diminishes as you focus on a given conversation.
The two separate studies involving 49 adult participants. The results show that the frequency of blinking decreases significantly as the subjects begin to hear recognizable sentences. Blinking reduction is most pronounced as individuals strain to hear the words through increasing background noise. This effect persists no matter the level of ambient light, bright, dim, or dark.
Our brains and eyelids seem to pause as we listen more intensely. This information should give you a hint about the level of interest your partner in conversation really has in what your are saying. If they are blinking up a storm, your words are likely going in one ear and out the other.
