Lie Detection Advice
What constitutes the truth and what constitutes a lie are different to every individual. Using psychological and bodily conditioning, a person can lie repeatedly, even when hooked up to a multitude of the highest tech devices, without being caught. Likewise, a person who is telling the truth may panic during an exam or have a sudden flashback of a painful or sensitive memory sparked by a test question, causing them to seemingly answer deceptively. While the test procedures are not perfect, they still work well in the majority of cases and will provide useful intelligence about a person’s actions and intentions.
