Description:

In this course we will see an introduction to basic concepts of lying. Subsequently, the most appropriate way to obtain a testimony (necessary information to be analyzed) is explained.

Once the information is obtained, we will detail how to study it by means of content analysis criteria and how to study such an important element as facial expression through Facial Expression Analysis Protocol (FEAP).

We will conclude with the latest advances in scientific research on lie detection and a review of the main existing meta-analyses in this field.

Objectives:

  • Study the tools used to detect lies
  • Know the validity of these tools
  • Explore new scientific approaches
