Answer 1

Answer:

Negative.

Explanation:

The research conducted on non-verbal communication reflects that the 'negative information' regarding a person tends to 'attract more attention as negative aspect is more salient to grab our attention which would evoke more physiological arousal and exhibit more considerable impact on our deductions, impressions, or judgments about that person.' The research conducted by Hansen revealed that it is psychologically proven; 'people are more likely to adjust their judgments or conclusions about a person based on negative information as they seem more weighty in comparison to the positive'.
