Deception Tips Podcast

Deception Tip 95: Take care not to be overconfident in your lie spotting ability. Liars may play on that confidence and use your power against you.

Deception Tip 94: Pathological liars may not display any leakage because they are so accustomed to lying. What’s more is that their truths may show more leakage than a lie.

Deception Tip 93: Real memories are recorded using all senses. Whereas lies are mainly visual. Question liars by asking about how something smelled, felt, sounded, tasted, et cetera.

Deception Tip 92: Offer a way of escape, or a route of less punishment, if they tell you the truth. People are motivated to avoid negative outcomes.

Deception Tip 91: Ask for information when people are hungry. Hunger can lead to impatience and impulsive responses, which may be more truthful.
