Facial expressions are the most reliable nonverbal indicator of emotions, as the face is the primary means of expressing emotions, and certain expressions are universally recognized as indicating specific emotions. Kinesics, body posture, and proxemics may also provide some indication of a person's emotional state, but they are less reliable and more easily manipulated.
