What would be a good research topic under the subject Body Language?

This is a psychology research paper and just the topic body language seems a bit broad.

What would be a good research topic under the subject Body Language?
Well, I just did one on the facial cues of deception. Psychologist Paul Ekman and Wallace Friesen's research would be a good source for facial expression and detecting deception.





There are tons of research done on nonverbal behavior and deception. Aldert Vrij, Smantha man, and DePaulo are other good researchers, just to name a few.





You can focus on one aspect, either the face or body. The body in particular, shows reliable cues of deception when a person is lying, particularly a decline of illustrators and foot movements. (When a person is lying, body movements significantly decrease. Conversely when a person is telling the truth, they use their body to communicate).





You can also do research into the morphology of Duchenne smile versus non-enjoyment smiling. Paul Ekman has also done plenty of research into this.
