Do you think you can tell when someone is lying?
Are their eyes shifty, or maybe their body language gives it away? Or maybe those aren’t even the right clues, and you can’t tell at all because of something called the truth-default theory.
Tim Levine, Phd., Distinguished Professor and Chair of Communication Studies at The University of Alabama, Birmingham, is known internationally as a leader in deception research. His book Duped: Truth-Default Theory and the Social Science of Deception explains why we are unable to tell when someone is lying and how to find evidence that gets us closer to the truth. When we communicate with people, honesty is our default. Naturally, Dr.Levine consults for law enforcement and intelligence and counterintelligence workers.
He joins us on this podcast to explain the research and to help us identify honesty and deception.
