A speaker keeps laughing while discussing an important topic because of nervousness. Why may listeners misunderstand it?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Laughter may appear insensitive or suggest that the topic is not taken seriously

The governing concept is that non-verbal behaviour can be incongruent with the spoken subject. Nervous laughter may be an involuntary way to release tension, but listeners may see repeated laughter during a serious discussion as mockery, indifference, or lack of respect. Option A is correct. B is false because nervousness is not always visible, while C and D wrongly deny the meaning carried by vocal and facial behaviour.
