This is an introduction to the topic of deception. For the first 5 weeks, we will cover the demographics, language, determinants, styles, and examples of deceit. We will also cover behavioral analyses of deception. In the remaining 5 weeks, we will study the physiological detection of deception. You may expect to read about 50 pages per week in:

Aldert Vrij (2008) Detecting Lies and Deceit : Pitfalls and Opportunities, second edition (Wiley Series in Psychology of Crime, Policing and Law) (Paperback available)

The Vrij book is available on line from Amazon, etc. In the beginning, we will stick close to the Vrij book, using and discussing it to get a sense of the psychosocial determinants of deception. This book has its limitations and is no bible. It is pretty simple to zip through.

When we deal with the detection of deception, since that is my major research area, I will do some lecturing, and the Vrij text augmented with readings in the primary literature, will be background. Required reading in black font. Purple color below is optional reading. I will discuss the new brain wave deception tests, which I helped develop.

There are 2, non-cumulative, multiple choice exams, the average of which influence your grade 67%, if your class participation allows me to take it in to consideration I will consider it up to an influence value of 33%. If you are the strong silent type, then your exam average will determine your grade entirely.
