[00:-1.00]"I liked him the minute I saw him!"
[00:-2.00]"Before she even said a word,
[00:-3.00]I knew there was something funny about her."
[00:-4.00]Such statements are examples of "snap judgments";,
[00:-5.00]opinions which are formed suddenly,
[00:-6.00]seemingly on no sound reason at all.
[00:-7.00]Most people say snap judgments are unsound or even dangerous.
[00:-8.00]They also admit they often make snap judgments and find them to be fairly sound
[00:-9.00]Snap judgments like "love at first sight" or "instant hate",
[00:10.00]if taken seriously,
[00:11.00]have usually been considered signs of immaturity or lack of common sense.
[00:12.00]When someone "has a feeling" about someone else,
[00:13.00]people more often laugh than pay attention.
[00:14.00]Most people think you find out about a person
[00:15.00]by listening to what he says over a period of time.
[00:16.00]Others say "actions speak louder than words,"
[00:17.00]usually in relation to keeping promises,
[00:18.00]paying bills or sending money home.
[00:19.00]Because people assume "you are what you say you are",
[00:20.00]they talk a lot to become acquainted with each other.
[00:21.00]Once two people have become acquainted,
[00:22.00]they think it was their conversation
[00:23.00]that gave them their information about each other.
[00:24.00]As behavioral sciences develop, however,
[00:25.00]researchers find the importance of speech has been overestimated.
[00:26.00]Although speech is the most obvious form of communication,
[00:27.00]we do use other forms of which we may be only partially aware or,
[00:28.00]in some cases, completely unaware.
[00:29.00]It is possible we are unconsciously sending messages
[00:30.00]with every action, messages which are unconsciously picked up by others
[00:31.00]and used in forming opinions.
[00:32.00]These unconscious actions and reactions to them
[00:33.00]may in part account for our "feelings" and "snap judgments".
[00:34.00]We communicate a great deal, researchers have found, with our bodies
[00:35.00]by the way we move, sit, stand
[00:36.00]and what we do with our hands and heads.
[00:37.00]Imagine a few people sitting in a waiting room:
[00:38.00]one is tapping his fingers on his briefcase,
[00:39.00]another keeps rubbing his hands together,
[00:40.00]another is biting his fingernails,
[00:41.00]still another grabs the arms of his chair tightly
[00:42.00]and one keeps running his fingers through his hair.
[00:43.00]These people aren\'t talking but they\'re "saying" a lot
[00:44.00]if you know the "body language" they\'re using.
[00:45.00]Two of the most"telling"forms of behavior are driving a car and playing games
[00:46.00]Notice a person\'s reaction to stress in these situations
[00:47.00]and to aggressive behavior in others.
[00:48.00]Those who easily become angry, excited,
[00:49.00]passive or resentful when driving or playing
[00:50.00]be giving insights into the inside self.
[00:51.00]While clothing serves a purely practical function,
[00:52.00]how you dress also communicates many things about your social status
[00:53.00]state of mind and even your aspirations and dreams.
[00:54.00]The eleven-year-old girl who dresses like a college student
[00:55.00]and the forty-year-old woman who dresses like a teenager
[00:56.00]are saying something through what they wear.
[00:57.00]What you communicate through your kind of dress definitely influences others
[00:58.00]to accept the picture of yourself you are projecting:
[00:59.00]in the business world, the person who dresses like a successful manager
[-1:00.00]is most likely to be promoted into a managing position.
[-1:-1.00]Also important are the ornaments a person wears:
[-1:-2.00]buttons, medals, jewels, etc.
[-1:-3.00]Such ornaments are often the means by which a person
[-1:-4.00]announces a variety of things about himself:
[-1:-5.00]his convictions (campaign buttons), his beliefs ( religious tokens ),
[-1:-6.00]his membership in certain groups ( club pins or badges ),

[-1:-7.00]his past achievements (college ring or Phi Beta Kappa key)
[-1:-8.00]and his economic status (diamonds).
[-1:-9.00]Another sign of a person’s nature
[-1:10.00]is said to be found in his choices in architecture and furniture.
[-1:11.00]A person who would really like to live in a castle
[-1:12.00]would probably be more at home in the Middle Ages.
[-1:13.00]Those who like Victorian family houses and furniture
[-1:14.00]might secretly welcome a return to more rigid social norms.
[-1:15.00]People who are content with modern design
[-1:16.00]are probably comfortable with modern life-styles.
[-1:17.00]When you see a person for the first time,
[-1:18.00]even though he doesn\'t speak to you, you begin watching him
[-1:19.00]his actions, his attitude, his clothing and many other things.
[-1:20.00]There\'s a wealth of information there if you know how to "read" it
[-1:21.00]Perhaps snap judgments aren\'t so unsound after all.
