Study Notes

Deception Detection

  • There is no comprehensive list of irrefutable behavioral indicators of lying, and detecting deception requires considering all factors together, including context and psychological processes.

Nonverbal Expressive Channels

  • Gestures:
    • Poyatos (1994a) organized communicative process concepts into verbal language, paralanguage, and kinesics.
    • Touching one's ear or scratching their head may be a microexpression, but it's not a definitive indicator of deception.
  • Paralanguage:
    • Defined as the component of language that refers to cognitive processing necessary to understand and express communicative intentions through suprasegmental aspects of speech (pauses, intonation variations, vocal intensity modulations).
    • Emotional prosody is related to the communication of emotions and introduces emotional content into the message.
    • Tone of voice informs about the emotional state of an individual, and speech speed increases with excitement or euphoria.

Eye Movements

  • No eye movement pattern is associated with deception, contrary to NLP advocates' claims.
  • Fixed gaze is a myth; individuals who maintain eye contact with their interlocutor may be monitoring and checking the effect of their lie.
  • Liars may maintain more deliberate eye contact than truth-tellers, and eye contact is affected by the need to hide information.

Other Expressive Channels

  • Positions and Postures:
    • Behavioral clues associated with deception can be revealed indirectly, allowing interpretation and elaboration of hypotheses about a subject's credibility.
    • Observable behavior is the only objective part, and it can be intentional, automatic, or a failed attempt at control.

SAVE (System for Analysis of Validity in Evaluation)

  • Covers the need for integration to detect and demonstrate deception, considering all factors together.
  • Allows for the interpretation of behavioral signs related to lying and psychological processes.
