One’s body language can tell a lot about a person’s level of cognizance during a conversation. Generally, here are some clear tips indicating that they are not paying full attention:
-Lack of Eye Contact
1. If they refrain from eye contact too many times, are wandering about the room and concentrating on something else, it suggests distraction.
2. If their body language gives off signs that they regard you, the other person, with a pretty reflective attitude, they don’t seem to connect with you at all.
-Fidgeting or Restlessness
This is a physical type of disengagement: Losing interest, fiddling with certain things, or tapping foot show changes leading toward boredom or impatience.
-Distant Facial Expression
If they seem blank or neutral facially, without nodding or reacting appropriately, it indicates that they might not be processing the conversation.
-Crossed Arms or Leaning Away
This shows a certain distance and defensiveness. It suggests they are either unwilling or unable to engage.
-Checking Their Device
If they are habitually glancing at their phone, watch, or anything else, it’s likely that they are either distracted or distracted and dull.
-Delayed or an Unenthusiastic Response
Too long to react about the subject or answers such as these, “Yeah,” or “Uh-huh,” could be signs too.
