Research syntheses suggest that verbal cues are more diagnostic of deception than other cues. Recently, to avoid human judgmental biases, researchers have sought to find faster and more reliable methods to perform automatic content analyses of statements. However, diversity of methods and inconsistent findings do not present a clear picture of effectiveness. We integrate and statistically synth...

Hartwig, M. (2005). Interrogating to detect deception and truth: Effects of strategic use of evidence. Department of Psychology, Göteborg University, Sweden. Several decades of research has shown that people are poor at detecting deception. This thesis, based on four empirical studies, aimed at exploring human deception detection accuracy in the context of interrogations. In three of the studie...

Secondly, the contribution made by to sustainable investigated, using examples from historical contemporary societies organisations. The role truth-tellers whistleblowers also discussed. Thirdly, importance utilising nurturing in church theological education settings discussed.Intradisciplinary ...

Deception has been extensively studied in many disciplines in social science. With the increasing use of instant messaging (IM) in both informal communication and performing tasks in work place, deception in IM is emerging as an important issue. In this study, we aimed to explore the online behavior of deception in a group IM setting. The empirical results from triadic groups showed that two ty...

People go to fortune tellers in hopes of learning things about their future. A future career path is one of the topics most frequently discussed. But rather than rely on “black arts” to make predictions, in this work we scientifically and systematically study the feasibility of career path prediction from social network data. In particular, we seamlessly fuse information from multiple social ne...

This paper discusses a system for automatic clustering of urban-legend texts. Urban legend (UL) is a short story set in the present day, believed by its tellers to be true and spreading spontaneously from person to person. A corpus of Polish UL texts was collected from message boards and blogs. Each text was manually assigned to one story type. The aim of the presented system is to reconstruct ...

Children's ability to deceive was examined in order to determine whether they are able to hide their emotional expression intentionally. Three-year-oids were instructed not to peek at a toy while the experimenter left the room. When asked, the great majority either denied that they peeked or would not answer the question. Facial and bodily activity did not differentiate the deceivers from the t...

ion helps us to manage complexity when we deal with large sets of scenarios. Type abstraction leads from the extensional to the intensional level. Content abstraction allows us to use boxes with names instead of full descriptions. Composition abstraction consolidates a set of scenarios into a common higher-level scenario. Generalization abstraction factors out common properties. Usage abstracti...

Forth is a language that, for most programmers, is like the back side of the Moon: they know it is there but have never laid eyes on it. Yet Forth is mature (about as old as Lisp or C); ubiquitous in everyday applications such as automated tellers, package tracking, airline reservations, telephone switching systems, and microcontrollers everywhere; and built into millions of personal computers ...

obs needing to be processed in a manufacturing plant, bank customers waiting to be served by tellers, aircraft waiting for landing clearances, and program tasks to be run on a parallel or distributed computer: What do these situations have in common? They all encounter the scheduling problem that emerges whenever there is a choice concerning the order in which tasks can be performed and the ass...
