Mannerism (behavior)

In human behavior, a mannerism is a special habit of a person.[1][2] In particular, the term refers to an affected or exaggerated speech or actions.[3]

Examples

Mannerisms are often subconscious, which may be shown as body language and voice tone alike. Examples of mannerisms are twirling hair, tapping fingers and particular facial expressions.[2] Some mannerisms may be attempts to call attention to themselves.[4]

Psychopathology

In psychopathology, mannerisms that look weird may be a syndrome of various personality disorders.[5] Mannerisms should not be equated with tics.[2]
