Talk:Oculesics

Untitled

Hello-

My fellow University of Oklahoma students and I are working on starting this page on Oculesics for our assignment.

We are not experts in oculesics, nor- as you can see- are we experts in the wiki format. However, we did post references for each section.

This is very much a work in progress, so please feel free to edit as necessary.

Our logic on making a page for oculesics rather redirecting to eye contact (as it did prior to this edit) are the theories that say oculesics also deals with pupil dilation, eye movement, and gaze. We also include the term "oculist" as a doctor or professional in eye health care.

Thank you,

Richard Suttles rs3262@hotmail.com

Mention eyes rolled back in disbelief

There is also a look that is not mentioned. It is a combination of

• 白眼
• Eyes rolled back
• Supercilious look

to communicate "can you believe this guy?", "are you kidding?", "awful". Jidanni (talk) 10:47, 15 August 2016 (UTC)

Ah: eye roll. Jidanni (talk) 14:11, 15 August 2016 (UTC)

Changing minds.org?

I doubt the changing minds.org citations. I'm not sure how true the things are and in general, I think it would be better to have a more credible citation. 18.29.7.134 (talk) 23:41, 14 May 2022 (UTC)

I agree - I have concerns about the accuracy of the latter half of this page, from the changing minds reference onwards. It seems very poorly referenced, and reads like an advertisement for a pseudoscience rather than an objective reflection of it. I also agree with Balnibarbarian (21/10/22) that it might be split due to differences in definition - the medical study of eye kinesics separated from the social (pseudoscience) aspects.

Should this page be split?

Balnibarbarian (talk) 19:20, 21 October 2022 (UTC) I'm wondering if this article should be split up into medical and social science parts, since there are different definitions.
