shiftiness
This term describes a specific kind of untrustworthiness characterized by restlessness and evasion. It suggests a person who is not merely lying, but who is physically or verbally slippery, often manifesting as shifty eyes or a nervous demeanor that betrays a hidden agenda.
Because it describes an abstract quality of character, this noun is uncountable. It cannot be pluralized or counted with numbers; instead, it is measured in degrees or described using adjectives like "extreme" or "perceived."
