Another study on heroic body language showed that portraits of moral heroes (Martin Luther King, Jr., Nelson Mandela, Mother Teresa, etc.) portray heroes gazing up and to the viewer's right (the heroes left) in part because ideologically minded followers select and propagate these images of their leaders. Study 1 found that the gaze direction of portraits of moral heroes tend to show the hero looking up-and-right more often than chance would predict, and more often than portraits of celebrities (e.g., Elvis Presley) do.<ref>https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/26811436</ref> Essentially looking up to the left, and looking down to the left are heroic gestures. The findings suggest that one should always keep a person directly in front or to the left of oneself, to appear as morally righteous as possible. | |||
