Question

question 6 of 10
which type of body language will most effectively communicate your refusal?
a. looking down while talking
b. keeping your hands in your pockets
c. being in a seated position
d. crossing your arms over your chest

Explanation:

To determine the body language for effective refusal, we analyze each option:

• Option A: Looking down suggests shyness or lack of confidence, not strong refusal.
• Option B: Hands in pockets can seem casual or unengaged, not a clear refusal signal.
• Option C: A seated position alone doesn't convey refusal; it's a neutral posture.
• Option D: Crossing arms over the chest is a common non - verbal cue indicating defensiveness or a firm boundary, which effectively communicates refusal.

Answer:

D. Crossing your arms over your chest
