VERBAL AND NON-VERBAL MARKERS OF INSINCERITY IN THE ORAL DISCOURSE OF REPRESENTATIVES OF SPANISH LINGUISTIC CULTURE
The article describes the main verbal and non-verbal markers of insincerity in the oral discourse of representatives of Spanish linguistic culture. In the experimental part of the work it was revealed that the informants gestured and made facial movements more frequently when they reproduced the false information in comparison with the cases where the speakers read the text which they considered «truthful»; in addition to this, gestures were manifested more intensively in this case. In insincere discourse, informants also often changed the word order or made different lexical changes. Furthermore, a significant increase in the duration of the gaze at the interlocutor was also noticed during the informants’ reproduction of the false statements. These results of the research provide grounds for formulating a preliminary hypothesis that insincere communication has its own verbal and non-verbal markers which are accessible to observation and fixation, and further study in this sphere will contribute to the development of methods of attribution of statements and individual communicative fragments of «sincere» or «insincere» discourse.
