Sunday, November 25, 2007; Page N06 In the arena of lie detecting, it's important to remember that no emotion tells you its source. Think of Othello suffocating Desdemona because he interpreted her tears (over Cassio's death) as the reaction of an adulterer, not a friend. Othello made an assumption and killed his wife. Oops. The moral of the story: Just because someone exhibits the behavior of a liar does not make them one. "There isn't a silver bullet," psychologist Paul Ekman says. "That's because we don't have Pinocchio's nose. There is nothing in demeanor that is specific to a lie." Nevertheless, there are indicators that should prompt you to make further inquiries that may lead to discovering a lie. Below is a template for taking the first steps, gleaned from interviews with Ekman and several other experts, as well as their works.

  • Pathology of Imprisonment
    Pathology of Imprisonment PHILIP G. ZIMBARDO Philip Zimbardo and his colleagues were interested in studying the effects of imprisonment on human behavior—in particular, the psychological impact of imprisonment. They opened a mock prison and peopled it with carefully screened college students who were “mature, emotionally stable, normal, intelligent,” and “from middle-class homes throughout the United States and Canada.” Then they observed what happened. The results of the experiment proved so shocking that the researchers aborted it after just six days. In this essay, Zimbardo reports on these results. He then comments on why prisons breed pathological behavior and what we might do to prevent what happened during the experiment. was recently released from solitary confinement after being held therein Ifor 37 months [months!]. A silent system was imposed upon me and to even whisper to the man in the next cell resulted in being beaten by guards, sprayed with chemical mace, blackjacked, stomped and thrown into a strip- cell naked to sleep on a concrete floor without bedding, covering, wash basin or even a toilet. The floor served as toilet and bed, and even there the silent system was enforced. To let a moan escape your lips because of the pain and discomfort . resulted in another beating. I spent not days, but months there during my 37 months in solitary. I have filed every writ possible against the administrative acts of brutality. The state courts have all denied the petitions. Because of my refusal to let the things die down and forget all that happened during my 37 months in solitary .

  • August 12, 2013 President Barack Obama the White House 1600
    August 12, 2013 President Barack Obama The White House 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue NW Washington, DC 20500 Dear Mr. President: We are health care professionals, members of human rights organizations, and others deeply concerned about the delays in closing the Guantánamo Bay detention camp and the appalling treatment of the detainees on hunger strike. The hunger strike has now passed its sixth month and up to 106 detainees have joined, with as many as 46 of them subjected to force-feeding. The President of the American Medical Association (AMA) has written to Defense Secretary Hagel that force-feeding mentally competent adults is a violation of medical ethics. The American Nursing Association (ANA) position statement, consistent with the Code of Ethics for Nurses, asserts that “acceptance or refusal of food and fluids, whether delivered by normal or artificial means must be respected.” The Guantánamo Command maintains that force-feeding the prisoners is necessary to save lives and that the procedures conform to acceptable practice. We strongly disagree. There is alarming evidence in news reports and in the new Guantánamo Standard Operating Procedures: Medical Management of Detainees on Hunger Strike (SOP) that the Guantánamo method is exceptionally brutal. When a detainee resists, he is forcefully extracted from his cell by several soldiers and strapped into a 6-point restraint chair. A mask is placed over his mouth to keep him from biting or spitting at medical personnel. He may stay strapped down for two hours while personnel make sure he does not vomit the liquid feeding. Men weakened by significant weight loss are particularly at risk for serious injury during this regimen.

  • Ekman, Emotional Expression, and the Art of Empirical Epiphany
    JOURNAL OF RESEARCH IN PERSONALITY Journal of Research in Personality 38 (2004) 37–44 www.elsevier.com/locate/jrp Ekman, emotional expression, and the art of empirical epiphany Dacher Keltner* Department of Psychology, University of California, Berkeley, 3319 Tolman, 94720 Berkeley, CA, USA Introduction In the mid and late 1960s, Paul Ekman offered a variety of bold assertions, some seemingly more radical today than others (Ekman, 1984, 1992, 1993). Emotions are expressed in a limited number of particular facial expressions. These expressions are universal and evolved. Facial expressions of emotion are remarkably brief, typically lasting 1 to 5 s. And germane to the interests of the present article, these brief facial expressions of emotion reveal a great deal about peopleÕs lives. In the present article I will present evidence that supports this last notion ad- vanced by Ekman, that brief expressions of emotion reveal important things about the individualÕs life course. To do so I first theorize about how individual differences in emotion shape the life context. With this reasoning as backdrop, I then review four kinds of evidence that indicate that facial expression is revealing of the life that the individual has led and is likely to continue leading. Individual differences in emotion and the shaping of the life context People, as a function of their personality or psychological disorder, create the sit- uations in which they act (e.g., Buss, 1987). Individuals selectively attend to certain features of complex situations, thus endowing contexts with idiosyncratic meaning. Individuals evoke responses in others, thus shaping the shared, social meaning of the situation.

  • E Motions in Process Barbara Rauch
    e_motions in process Barbara Rauch Abstract This research project maps virtual emotions. Rauch uses 3D-surface capturing devices to scan facial expressions in (stuffed) animals and humans, which she then sculpts with the Phantom Arm/ SensAble FreeForm device in 3D virtual space. The results are rapidform printed objects and 3D animations of morphing faces and gestures. Building on her research into consciousness studies and emotions, she has developed a new artwork to reveal characteristic aspects of human emotions (i.e. laughing, crying, frowning, sneering, etc.), which utilises new technology, in particular digital scanning devices and special effects animation software. The proposal is to use a 3D high-resolution laser scanner to capture animal faces and, using the data of these faces, animate and then combine them with human emotional facial expressions. The morphing of the human and animal facial data are not merely layers of the different scans but by applying an algorithmic programme to the data, crucial landmarks in the animal face are merged in order to match with those of the human. The results are morphings of the physical characteristics of animals with the emotional characteristics of the human face in 3D. The focus of this interdisciplinary research project is a collaborative practice that brings together researchers from UCL in London and researchers at OCAD University’s data and information visualization lab. Rauch uses Darwin’s metatheory of the continuity of species and other theories on evolution and internal physiology (Ekman et al) in order to re-examine previous and new theories with the use of new technologies, including the SensAble FreeForm Device, which, as an interface, allows for haptic feedback from digital data.Keywords: interdisciplinary research, 3D-surface capturing, animated facial expressions, evolution of emotions and feelings, technologically transformed realities.

They consist of conscious mental reactions towards objects or situations and are associated with various physiological, behavioral, and cognitive changes. In this paper, we propose a comparative analysis between different machine learning and deep learning techniques, with and without feature selection, for binarily classifying the six basic emotions, namely anger, disgust, fear, joy, sadness, and surprise, into two symmetrical categorical classes (emotion and no emotion), using the physiological recordings and subjective ratings of valence, arousal, and dominance from the DEAP (Dataset for Emotion Analysis using EEG, Physiological and Video Signals) database. The results showed that the maximum classification accuracies for each emotion were: anger: 98.02%, joy:100%, surprise: 96%, disgust: 95%, fear: 90.75%, and sadness: 90.08%. In the case of four emotions (anger, disgust, fear, and sadness), the classification accuracies were higher without feature selection.

  • 1 Online Report for CNN Anderson Cooper 360° Special Report “Kids
    Report for CNN AC360° 1 Online Report for CNN Anderson Cooper 360° Special Report “Kids on Race: The Hidden Picture” March 5, 2012 ________________________________________________________________ Background The previous CNN AC360° project on race (‘Doll Study’) was a re-examination of the classic “Doll” study conducted by Kenneth and Mamie Clark in the United States in the 1940s and 1950s in which young African-American children, particularly in the South, when given a choice between a White doll and a Black doll, preferred the White doll. Children also assigned more positive traits to the White doll and even thought that teachers would prefer the White doll over the Black doll (Clark & Clark, 1947). On the whole, African-American children preferred a same-race doll. Yet, a portion of African- American children thought that the White doll was preferred by the teacher, and also thought that this doll was more attractive. Rather than focusing on children’s self- esteem (as the Doll Studies of the 1940s and 1950s did) current child development researchers view the findings as revealing young children’s awareness of status and race, and the differential preferences that exist in society about race and social relationships (Aboud, 2003; Nesdale, 2004). In 2010, CNN AC360° revisited this test with the goal of determining the status of children’s racial beliefs, their attitudes and preferences, as well as skin tone biases at two different developmental periods in young childhood. While few age differences were found across the two age samples, the pilot demonstration revealed that among the young children interviewed (mean age 5 years) European-American students tended to select lighter skin tones more than their African-American peers when indicating positive attitudes and beliefs, social preferences, and color preferences.
