The head movement indicates an subconscious desire to empathize with whomever you are chatting with. Psychopaths have to fake it, because they are incapable of empathy.
This is not an absolute indicator, because psychopaths might fake head movements as well to make it seem as though they empathize when they don't.

"How do you spot a psychopath? According to one new study, there’s one recognizable sign. New research suggests that levels of head movement during a conversation could be an indicator."
Ok, somebody roll out the clips of AOC and Kamala and the women of The View.

Hell of a day to have a stiff neck during that law enforcement interview. lol.
Seriously, I’m just getting to the end of the “Dexter” series and they kind of delve into these behavioral matters. Super interesting.

I had a very good professor in college who had a lot of experience in this area. He said you could be working alongside a psychopath (who hates you) for years are not know it. Some of them are so good at faking it.

All you have to do is look in the White House or the Congressional Office Buildings.

I read recently they have seriously underestimated the numbers of female psychopaths. Previously the male/female ratio was about 6:1, but the females are more subtle and they’re revised it to 1.25:1. So basically they underestimated female psychopaths about 4 times. They occur almost at the same rate as male psychopaths.

psychopaths and sociopaths are largely narcissists.
Keeping their heads “quiet” as they speak may be their subconscious saying “look at me!!!”

I tend to doubt this. I knew a woman with psychopathic tendencies whose head moved a lot when she was talking.

My ex wife was/is a Psychopath. No empathy for anyone not even her own children. Took me 10 years to figure it out. The cannot have a useful emotional interaction without it benefits them. Even then they have to fake the emotional side because they can’t actually feel for anything except their own gain. They are a sad group yet also very dangerous.

So “the science” is using DC denizens as guinea pigs? Good to know. Wonder how much money “the science” got for studying things we already knew. 🤔

Pretty sure actors and directors have known this for a while. When they want to depict someone as exhibiting this trait, having them give a cold, icy, motionless stare, or otherwise being cold and distant and unmoving, seems pretty standard.
