The Verifiability Approach (VA) is a verbal veracity tool that assumes truth tellers provide more details can be verified and obtain higher ratio of such (verifiable details/total details) than liars. A VA meta-analysis was conducted. Results showed reported verifiable liars ( k = 20, N 1532, g 0.42). effect moderated by the presence information protocol nature statement (event-related or not)....

The first aim of this experiment was to examine whether being informed about a method of detecting deception called Criteria-Based Content Analysis (CBCA) would increase participants' CBCA scores when deceptive so that they might then be classified as truthful. The second aim was to investigate whether Reality Monitoring could be used as an alternative tool for verbal lie detection. The third a...

By a \tree-bank grammar" we mean a context-free grammar created by reading the production rules directly from hand-parsed sentences in a tree bank. Common wisdom has it that such grammars do not perform well, though we know of no published data on the issue. The primary purpose of this paper is to show that the common wisdom is wrong. In particular we present results on a tree-bank grammar base...

and Headnote We put “runs” back in the bank runs literature. A unified bank, one that invests in both liquid and illiquid assets, can easily avoid runs but it still faces a small probability of non-run rationing of depositors. In a separated financial system, the bank only holds relatively liquid assets; it is subject to runs with small probability, but because of its overinvestment in the liqu...

The presence of moral hazard in the banking sector can have worrying results. This paper examines the role of government guarantees to banks in generating moral hazard in Iran. We test for moral hazard among bank creditors by determining whether protected banks received more funds from creditors than non-protected banks. Empirically, to determine the existence of moral hazard among bank manag...

We study the Diamond-Dybvig [3] model as developed in Green and Lin [5] and Peck and Shell [7]. We dispense with the notion of a bank as a coalition of depositors. Instead, our bank is a self-interested agent with a technological advantage in recordkeeping. We examine the implications of the resulting agency problem for the design of bank contracts and the possibility of bank-run equilibria. Fo...

the purpose of this paper is to examine the determinants of the timing of bank failure/merger in 10 asian countries over the period of 1999-2007 using a multivariate logit model and a split population duration analysis. apart from bank-specific information, we also focus on the effects of macroeconomic and financial characteristics. the following empirical findings are obtained. first, the resu...

Conglomerates, trade credit arrangements and banks are all instances of financial intermediation. However, in spite of this fundamental similarity, important differences exist between these institutions. In particular, they differ in the extent to which the projects financed absorb aggregate intermediary risk, in whether or not intermediation is carried out by a financial specialist, in the typ...

The present study aim is to offer a systematic method of assessing the credit risk of banks and also to identify key indicators using Decision Making Trial and Evaluation Laboratory (DEMATEL) technique as well as using Logit Regression in order to predict the credit risk of listed banks. The population of the study consists of the legal clients of the bank (Ansar Bank, Bank Saderat Iran, Bank M...

Recent research suggests that people experience distinct physiological reactions to lies versus truths. It is unclear, however, if this incorporated into greater truth-lie judgment accuracy. We hypothesized individuals with high interoceptive accuracy—those access bodily experiences and stronger responses emotional stimuli—might be particularly likely accurately discriminate high-stakes, Partic...
