A scant month earlier, Judge Eric M. Johnson of the Maryland Sixth Judicial Circuit, Montgomery County, had refused to admit potentially exculpatory fMRI lie detection evidence in the murder trial of State v Gary Smith. Citing the Frye standard, Johnson wrote, “It is clear to the Court that the use of fMRI to detect deception and verify truth in an individual’s brain has not achieved general acceptance in the scientific community.” While research on fMRI-based lie detection has continued, the general consensus in the scientific community regarding its probative value remains the same. This brief explores why. WHAT IS fMRI? The typical experimental paradigm involves “instructed” lies: a subject is given detailed instructions about how For more than a decade now, scientists have been explor- and when to lie, then placed in a scanner.

  • “Let Me Tell You My Life in a Song” on Autobiography and Begging in Broadside Ballads of the Blind
    THE EUROPEAN JOURNAL OF LIFE WRITING VOLUME VII(2018)34–52 “Let me tell you my life in a song” On Autobiography and Begging in Broadside Ballads of the Blind Karin Strand Svenskt visarkiv/Musikverket, Stockholm Let me tell you my life in a song, for when I remember time seems so long My days are dark, and heavy everything so I beg you: listen when I sing.1 1st stanza of “Lamentation of an invalid” by the former railway worker Karl Joelsson (1870–1953) who lost his sight, his hearing and both hands as he was dynamiting in America 1910. ABSTRACT IN ENGLISH What can street ballads tell us about the lives and realities of “common people”, of experiences “from below”? This article discusses the functional aesthetics and social context of one particular genre that has circulated in ephemeral song prints (skillingtryck) in Sweden: beggar verses of the blind. For centuries, such songs were sold in the streets and at market places as a means for the blind to earn a living, and a major part of them tell the life story, the sad fate, of their protagonists. Many prints declare the genre of autobiography on their very front page, quite literally selling the story of the protagonist’s life and ad- dressing the audience’s compassion. How, then, do these narratives relate to real life? How is individuality and authenticity expressed within a genre that to a large extent relies upon conventions and formulas? As is argued, songs of this kind are a suggestive source material of vernacular literacy, as well as of social and personal history from below.

  • Emotions and Deception Detection
    Emotions and Deception Detection Mircea Zloteanu Division of Psychology and Language Sciences University College London, UK A dissertation submitted in part fulfilment of the requirement for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Psychology Prepared under the supervision of Dr. Daniel C. Richardson September 2016 1 I, Mircea Zloteanu, confirm that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Where information has been derived from other sources, I confirm that this has been indicated in the thesis. Signature 2 Abstract Humans have developed a complex social structure which relies heavily on communication between members. However, not all communication is honest. Distinguishing honest from deceptive information is clearly a useful skills, but individuals do not possess a strong ability to discriminate veracity. As others will not willingly admit they are lying, one must rely on different information to discern veracity. In deception detection, individuals are told to rely on behavioural indices to discriminate lies and truths. A source of such indices are the emotions displayed by another. This thesis focuses on the role that emotions have on the ability to detect deception, exploring the reasons for low judgemental accuracy when individuals focus on emotion information. I aim to demonstrate that emotion recognition does not aid the detection of deception, and can result in decreased accuracy. This is attributed to the biasing relationship of emotion recognition on veracity judgements, stemming from the inability of decoders to separate the authenticity of emotional cues. To support my claims, I will demonstrate the lack of ability of decoders to make rational judgements regarding veracity, even if allowed to pool the knowledge of multiple decoders, and disprove the notion that decoders can utilise emotional cues, both innately and through training, to detect deception.

  • Efficient Lying Involves Self-Deception – Because If You Really Believe Your Lie, Your Limbic System Won't Give You Away
    The story “Looking for the Lie” http://www.nytimes.com/2006/02/05/magazine/05lying.html by Robin Marantz Henig New York Times Magazine, February 5, 2006 The pitch Dear Vera, A picture of a brain caught in mid-lie – that’s pretty hard to resist. Think of all the liars you’d love to expose: criminals, terrorists, politicians, philandering spouses, drug- abusing kids. That’s why scientists are trying to develop ways to unmask liars with techniques that go beyond traditional polygraphs – which are notoriously imprecise – or simple hunches – which are notoriously wrong. The next generation of lie detectors will include functional MRI scans, sophisticated electroencephalograms, and beams of light that can be blasted right inside the brain. But as we move closer to an era of high-tech mindreading, we should first take a look at what we know about lying – and whether it’s always such a good idea to uncover it. Is there an evolutionary purpose to deceit? A social purpose? Can anyone live in a community in which lies are always exposed and eliminated? If we can tell with confidence that someone is lying to us, is that something we even want to know? I’d like to propose a piece about lying for the Magazine, either as a 5000-word feature or as a longer cover story that gives me the space to explore the cultural, biological, and evolutionary implications of deception. I will also ask some of the questions raised with any new medical technology: what it can offer, how it can be abused, and whether it will set us off down a “slippery slope” that will lead to information we’d be better off without.

Aldert Vrij1 University of Portsmouth (UK) Ronald P Fisher Florida International University (USA) 1 Correspondence concerning this article should be addressed to: Aldert Vrij, University of Portsmouth, Psychology Department, King Henry Building, King Henry 1 Street, PO1 2DY, Portsmouth, Hants, UK or via email: [email protected] Lie Detection Tools 2 We introduce ‘arousal based’ lie detection tools (the Behavior Analysis Interview, the Comparison Question polygraph Test, CQT) and ‘cognition based’ lie detection tools (imposing cognitive load, encouraging interviewees to say more, asking unexpected questions, Strategic Use of Evidence and Verifiability Approach, Concealed Information polygraph Test, CIT), and discuss whether they are ready for use in investigative interviews. We developed ten criteria on which to judge their suitability. The two arousal-based techniques (frequently used) fall short on numerous criteria. There are too many problems associated with the imposing cognitive load technique, but the other cognitive techniques are ready for use (encouraging interviewees to say more and Strategic Use of Evidence) or ready for use if they continue to receive support in empirical research (asking unexpected questions and Verifiability Approach). The CIT polygraph test cannot be included in a standard investigative interview but can be useful in addition to investigative interviewing.
