In which situation would eye contact be considered positive?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: The speaker makes natural, brief eye contact with different listeners while explaining.
Natural and brief eye contact with different listeners usually communicates confidence, attention, and willingness to engage. It helps distribute the speaker’s attention across the group without making anyone uncomfortable. Continuous staring may seem aggressive, looking down throughout the conversation can suggest disinterest or insecurity, and turning one’s back prevents meaningful visual interaction.
