According to the method and way of perceiving the surrounding world, people are divided into visuals who perceive the surrounding reality through sight; kinestics - seeking to evaluate it through touch, smell or taste, and audials, for whom the main evaluative factor is hearing. Naturally, these people belong to different psychotypes. Psychologists say that when we communicate, we can determine who our interlocutor is.
Instructions
Step 1
There are practically no absolute visuals, kinestics and audials. In any case, each of us uses all our senses when assessing the world around us. Moreover, in childhood, the child uses all these feelings equally - look how children learn a new object: they take it in their hand, feel it, sniff it, taste it. Over the years, one method of perception and memorization of various life phenomena begins to prevail.
Step 2
To assess what is happening, the visual needs to see and inspect the object of interest. Most people belong to this type, more than half of the world's population can be attributed to this type. In appearance, most visuals are of average height and average build with fast, loud speech and high-pitched voices. Since their main organ of perception is vision, good posture and a head held high are their hallmarks. To convey their feelings, they often use words and phrases related to visualization in conversation: “look”, “pay attention”, “notice”. At the same time, such words are used even if it is about something that cannot be seen with the eye: “Look how talented he is”, “Look at the root of the problem”.
Step 3
There are a little more than a third of kinestics in our society. These include people of three subtypes, with a dominant sense of smell, touch and taste. Many kinestics - people of tall stature, thin and slightly stooped - they are forced to involuntarily lean towards their interlocutor in order to get to know and understand him better. In their basic vocabulary, most often you will hear the words: "touch", "explore", "touch", "comfortable", "feel". When assessing events, they appeal to tactile, olfactory and gustatory perception. These are excellent cooks, tasters, writers, masseurs and chiropractors, perfumers, people with developed intuition and high intelligence.
Step 4
There are not many audios around us. These are people with a well-developed, perfect pitch. They often become composers and singers. In a conversation, he may not even look at his interlocutor - tilting his head, he will carefully listen to the sound of your voice, perfectly perceiving you and your mood through this sound, without being distracted by the visual image. In their speech, you will most often hear phrases such as “Listen”, “By ear”, “Hear”.
Step 5
Knowing these features, you will be able to better understand your interlocutors and find contacts with people faster.
