What Secrets Your Voice Reveals About You
[A] Have you ever stepped back and wondered what your voice sounds like to other people? Your friends and family can probably identify you just by the sound of your voice. And it turns out, it says a lot about us. Specifically, people can tell whether you’re an extrovert or introvert. Extroverts tend to talk loudly, quickly, and excitedly. Introverts tend to speak quietly and more slowly. So, if you are that loud person at a party, you’ll probably find that all eyes are on you, whereas introverts won’t likely be at that party at all.
[B] Just one word can make the difference between whether or not someone trusts you. In one study, participants heard veral recordings of just the word “Hello.” Women said that men who said “Hello” with a deep pitch on the end of the word sounded more trustworthy. In the rever, men said they put more trust into the recordings of people that put a higher pitch on the ending of the word. It’s all about the pitch. Have you ever ud a person’s voice to gauge their trustworthiness? Did it work?
[C] This may sound bizarre, but if people clo their eyes and hear you speak they can pr
obably tell if you’re tall or short. Taller people tend to have a deeper voice, whereas shorter people tend to have a higher voice. This is true for both men and women. Think about your favorite actors and actress, and compare their voices side-by-side to e for yourlf.
[D] Let’s talk about up-speak. Ever heard of it? Maybe not the term, but I guarantee you’ve heard people speak this way. Up-speak is a talking trend -- especially in North America -- where the speaker gives the end of a ntence an upward inflection. In other words, people who talk this way make a statement sound like a question. Tho with up-speak sound less sure of themlves and less educated and therefore less professional. Something to keep in mind at your next job interview gives you the edge.
[E] If a woman is at the point in her cycle where she’s most fertile, her voice will involuntarily take on a higher pitch. This has an evolutionary purpo, since our early ancestors could u this as a tool to gauge whether a woman was ready and suitable for child-bearing. Likewi, studies have shown that a woman’s voice will take on a higher pit
ch when she’s speaking to someone she’s attracted to. What does your mother’s voice sound like? Or your grandmother’s? Hopefully, it sounded warm, soft and kind. Hearing an adult speak slowly and calmly with a warm tone has a calming effect on children, and even on pets. Adults notice this, too. If someone’s voice sounds cold, tight and abrupt, we might assume that this means they’re unable to understand the feelings of others. It’s not just in your head.
[F] One study had participants listen to male voices from different countries speaking their own languages. The strength of the men who provided the recordings was tested. The men with the deepest voices scored highest in body strength, specifically, the upper body. Another thing should be paid attention to in the dating world. Again, think of the evolutionary purpo: during the time of early man, women would gravitate toward the men with deeper voices. Since they tended to be the strongest, she knew he could protect her, defend their home, and was probably a good hunter and athlete. Having a good n of humor apparently came later.
[G] If you’ve noticed a lot of changes in a person’s voice -- the pace at which they talk, the tone and pitch of their voice, or whether their voice has become quieter -- they may have Parkinson’s dia. The changes can happen in the voice due to the tremors that a patient would be experiencing. If we are stresd out, our vocal cords tend to tighten. This will make your voice sound crackly and uneven. You might also stumble over your words. Overall, you’ll sound like you have pretty disorganized speech, which gives off the impression of stress and anxiety.
[H] A confident people will have a smooth and steady tone, will keep their volume at a comfortable, stable level, and their words will come out at an even pace. When you feel confident and know what you’re doing, you tend to rai the pitch of your voice when negotiating or debating with someone. You would also pay attention to how often and when you’re raising your voice and would speak enthusiastically. All this makes you sound like a leader, and people will tend to get behind you. Simply raising your voice and taking over people in a sharp, cold way makes you sound like you’re trying to cover up your lack of knowledge or experience—not someone people would trust to lead.

消费者分析[I] One study found that there’s a correlation between how attractive or pleasant your voice sounds and how desirable you are physically. Oh, I get that all the time. Now, keep in mind, the are stereotypes, so this doesn’t ring true for everyone; take it with a grain of salt. Maybe a little pepper. In this study, men who sounded attractive tended to have broad shoulders and narrow hips. Women who sounded attractive tended to have narrow waists and larger hips. What do you think? Has this been true in your experience?
