Voice Components of the Psychologist Voice

• Power – talk from your belly, not your mouth/head
• Volume – audible, but not too loud
• Timbre – warm and soothing
• Emphasis – ensure to stress the important words
• Pause – stop to emphasize key points

• Inflection – not monotone

Non-Verbal Communication
Source: Mehrabian, A. (1981) Silent messages: Implicit
communication of emotions and attitudes. Belmont, CA: Wadsworth.
16
Your "Psychologist Voice”: Leveraging Voice Mindfulness for UX Research
Non-Verbal Communication
• Posture – slouching indicates disinterest
• Facial expressions – appropriately responsive
• Distance – optimum conversational distance
• Voice tone – conversational tone
• Body movements – convey interest by squarely facing the
participant and leaning in where appropriate
• Mannerisms – distracting mannerisms may convey
disinterest
17
18
Your "Psychologist Voice”: Leveraging Voice Mindfulness for UX Research
Learning From The Stereotypical 1950’s Psychotherapist
• Listen to listen and understand
• Asking “Why” multiple times without using the word “why”
• Turn questions back onto participants
• Confirm that you understood them correctly
• Keep quiet – keep the participant talking
19
Your "Psychologist Voice”: Leveraging Voice Mindfulness for UX Research
Convey That There Are No Wrong Answers
• Never sound disappointed in an answer
• Always be interested in what they have to say
• Convey that the participant is the expert
20
21
Your "Psychologist Voice”: Leveraging Voice Mindfulness for UX Research
Practice Voice Mindfulness
• “Mindfulness” = active attention on the here and now
• “Voice mindfulness” = active attention about how you
convey your words
• Tough to transcend unconscious behavior
• Warm up your voice
• Practice, practice, practice
22
Your "Psychologist Voice”: Leveraging Voice Mindfulness for UX Research
Psychologist Voice = Voice Mindfulness
Use your psychologist voice to exhibit voice mindfulness
Be mindful of your voice so that you put participants at ease
People talking without speaking
People hearing without listening
- The Sound of Silence, Simon & Garfunkel

Editor's Notes

  1. Want to get the best possible information from participants – time is expensive and precious We want them to be relaxed, comfortable, and ready to share their innermost thoughts and dreams A relaxed participant will be honest and provide useful data A tense participant will be hard to control and distant
  2. Match the participant’s tone and pace Can be unnatural If done incorrectly, participants may think the moderator is mocking them Just be yourself As previously mentioned, we don’t any enough attention to how we speak “Yourself” may be a booming, intimidating voice, or a meek voice that does not command authority
  3. Dr. Serkin story
  4. NVC is typically involuntary – harder to control NVC sets the stage for the subsequent words
  5. Not to say you have to be a stereotypical 1950’s psychiatrist – overly even-toned Can still show emotion, and you should Convey that you empathize with the participant Don’t have to be their friend, but still a confidant
  6. Everyday conversations = listen to respond and interject Tell me how you feel about that; tell me more about that; what is your reaction to this Have participants answer their own questions before answering them Just to confirm, you feel X because of Y, is that correct? Is there another way to put it? Awkward silences are okay – participant may feel compelled to fill it with words
  7. This is also useful outside of the lab setting Can be used for difficult conversations We talk all day long without thinking of how we are delivering our words We let our emotions guide our voice – for better or for worse Calm contentious situations with a calm voice Calm yourself down for an important interview or meeting an important person
