Your Nose Gets Warmer When You Lie
According to a study by the University of Granada in Spain, you really CAN catch someone telling a lie by checking their nose.
--They call it "the Pinocchio Effect" . . . but a person's nose doesn't get bigger, it gets WARMER.
--Scientists looked at thermal images of people's faces, and found that different areas of their face changed temperature when they were doing different tasks.
--If someone was working on a difficult mental task, the temperature around their nose and the muscles in the corners of their eyes dropped . . . and if someone was feeling anxiety, the area heated up.
--And when someone was LYING, the temperature around their nose also jumped.
