本期节目主要探讨如何巧妙地应对说谎者,避免直接冲突,同时又能接近真相。节目中,Jefferson Fisher提出了三种策略:第一,暂停对话,表示需要之后再谈。这种策略可以有效地让说谎者感到不安,并可能导致他们试图重构叙事,从而露出破绽。第二,可以说“感觉不对劲”,以此试探对方。如果对方说谎,他们可能会表现出过激反应或试图转移话题。第三,保持沉默,让说谎者在沉默中自己暴露谎言。沉默可以给说谎者带来心理压力,让他们开始自我怀疑,并可能导致他们无意识地泄露真相。此外,节目还强调了相信直觉的重要性,以及如何识别说谎者过激的防御反应。节目中还特别指出,直接指出谎言往往会适得其反,说谎者可能会更加坚决地否认。而通过暂停、质疑和沉默,可以引导说谎者自己暴露谎言,避免直接冲突,同时也能维护自身的尊严和权益。最后,节目还针对听众提出的关于过度解释的问题,给出了相应的建议,即先给出直接答案,然后再解释,避免让人误解为说谎。 总而言之,节目中提出的三种策略,以及对过度解释问题的建议,都为我们提供了有效应对说谎者的实用技巧,帮助我们更好地维护自身的权益,并提升沟通技巧。
