A person speaks words of agreement but shakes the head from side to side. What should the listener notice?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Conflict between verbal and non-verbal cues

The governing concept is congruence between verbal and non-verbal communication. Spoken agreement conveys one message, while shaking the head from side to side commonly conveys disagreement, creating a contradiction. Therefore, option D is correct. The listener should not rely blindly on only the words or on irrelevant details such as clothing colour; speaking pace alone also cannot resolve the conflict. A respectful follow-up question can clarify the person’s real meaning.
