Hank you probs know this by now, but training in detecting bodily cues that might suggest lying doesn't work because a lot of these "cues" have only been shown to have a small effect in detecting a lie! Indeed, training to detect these cues just makes people more confident in their ability to detect a lie, and thus biased towards thinking people are being deceptive. My advice to anyone - don't try and be a good "lie spotter" because you can't be one. You may learn the behavioural indictors of a lie of a particular individual, but there is no well documented universal behaviour that suggests when one is lying. Sincerely a psychology student with too much time on her hands.

I imagine if you watch a lot of people lie and wait to be told the answer after you try to guess it you'll build a neural network in your brain to detect lies. I don't know, I never did it, but how is this different than just mastering a skill? Sure, it's tough, but it sounds to me pretty possible.
@eve363684 жыл бұрын
@@MaoDev well, firstly, a lot of the "cues" are things that people with disabilities do regardless of truth or lies so "lie detection" can be used to violate bodily autonomy AKA lie detection makes the error of confusing the map for the territory. secondly, it's culturally chauvinist & assumes a shared culture. in japan for example, laugher is something people do when scared, and in fact dark humor can be seen as a combination of that form of laughter with comedy. TLDR: there are several different style guides for nonverbal communication & you have to learn which ones an individual uses. basically you have to learn both the idiolects & sociolects a person has.

This area of science seems to be unreliable, unless someone can point out some research that proves it's credibility I find this sort of stuff hard to believe. It's interesting, sure enough and seeing these cues are fascinating, but i'm sure there's a reason that this kind of science isn't used in court and such. When i say "to be totally honest", it's because i'm preparing someone who may not like what i'm about to say, announcing that i'm about to make an honest statement sort of throws away the question of whether or not i agree with it... If i say "believe me" it's usually because i'm about to say something i don't expect the other person to believe, it doesn't tell if i'm lying or not. So we have different ways of using certain expressions, and what about people from different cultures? Relying on this sort of stuff leads to way too many false positives for it to be viable as an actual way to detect deception.

+Dan Maginnis That's why they're trained to look for clusters of cues. Just doing one or two of the things may not mean anything, but when you group cues together, it's a pretty good indicator. But yes, it is less reliable than would be needed to use in court. Though there are cases when this is still helpful. For example, in an interview, if a potential employee seems to be lying about something based on a group of cues, this is enough to confront them about their potential deception, or at least check into what they're saying. If the president says something with a cluster of cues, the least you can do is start a conspiracy theory and a couple doomsday cults.

One thing that we have to remember as well is that when we are talking about "admissible in court," we are talking about extremely high standards. They are appropriately high, of course, but that doesn't mean that the science behind it is worthless. It just means "approach with caution." An 80% success rate is still an 80% success rate (for example), just don't put a man to death on the 20% percent chance of failure.

How do I know you are no lying and just here to Break My Balls? Although you are Mostly correct, I have had first hand experience with using these techniques and catching people lying. I have also had first hand experience and spoken with professionally trained people that use the NLP EYE CHART and subjects TEND to subconsciously do exactly what is expected of them. Go ahead, try, look think about something YOU ARE NOT TEACHING ME ANYTHING THAT I DO NOT ALREADY KNOW. I think you speak like a lawyer and a professional DENIER. I speak with people like you every day. Just yesterday I mentioned one to someone about the flat earth idiots with dozens of channels on youtube and had this loser just go on and on and on about how no one can prove the earth is an oblate spheroid. I do not find this constructive at this time. I have the research and so much more, I seem to feel you are a time bandit out to break my balls and I am not interested in playing, having this discussion or looking up the information for you. I would rather work on my project, put the info together and then present it. Then I would be willing to have a debate about this subject. Also IF this is such a concern for you and you feel the need to TELL me what to think - why don't you contact the people that made this video and express you views to them. HUH? Why? Why don't you GO OUTSIDE and have a conversation with Real People and have someone Recall an event, watch what their eyes do when they are engaged in internal dialogue, then ask them about their feelings about something and THEN you can come back and DISMISS everything and tell me they looked you straight in the eyes the entire time. I do not wish to discuss this further. I DO NOT TRUST BLANK CHANNELS THAT SPEAK LIKE YOU DO. While I REALLY appreciate your intelligence, I do not like the attitude or the constant dismissal of things that have already been proven to be effective on some level BY A NOBODY FROM KZbin. You do not know it all, and neither do I, you may have some valuable information to offer but I do as well and I know, that you do not know a DAMN THING about that and I doubt you would be willing to discuss it. Pretty soon, I may end up having to IGNORE every reply received on youtube because every single one of you acts like the same troll and comes to me to deny every single thing just to break my balls. I have OTHER THINGS TO DO. Good BYE. Apologies but I am blocking you. Go tell it to the makers of the video Please. BESIDES. I MENTIONED TO SOMEONE TO CHECK OUT THE NLP EYE CHART. I DID NOT SAY THAT NLP BY ITSELF WAS COMPLETELY EFFECTIVE. and one more thing. "I sense a great happiness inside you" YOU DID NOT REPLY TO WHAT I DID THERE. I have first hand knowledge with that and I think you may have avoided it for a reason. Have a nice DEI

Yeah the Koko the Gorilla example... that might be that the researcher was being extremely selective. Koko didn't seem to understand language at all, just that they should make signs to make her handler happy, and "blame the kitten" is a classic example where when challenged it just listed random signs that it knew. It was a bit of a scandal, it was supposed to be serious research into communication in animals and she was making huge inferences. Like when Koko is asked to answer questions and gives completely nonsensical "answers" her handler would make leaps in logic that Koko was deliberately saying the wrong answer to be funny then would keep pressing Koko to give more and more responses till there was one that could be inferred as an intelligent response. Here's the thing: gorillas just can't communicate like that. It was a more complicated example of Hans the Horse only instead of waiting for a tap out of the right answers it was picking random works and the handler would make inferences such as "evidence" of lying... it was actually evidence of the Gorilla following Pavlovian conditioning. Now Koko was more intelligent than most animals, but it wasn't communicating in a meaningful way certainly not to the level of deception. It was little more than a parrot who knew many more phrases (as sign language) and saying as many without understanding.
@orcodrilo10 жыл бұрын
So in resume. You think coco made an unconscious mistake, or simply signed "the cat did it" due conditioning.
@Treblaine10 жыл бұрын
orcodrilo No, not a mistake... an inherent inability to understand what they were even trying to do. The thing was Koko was effectively (though probably not intentionally) conditioned to list random words she knew without any understanding of either the what the words she was saying meant or even what was being said to her. It wasn't deception, it wasn't even an answer, there wasn't even consideration of the question. For example: she tore off the sink, her handler questioned her about the sink in a way where a one word response will do, so not "what happened in your room" but "WHO tore off the sink?" and Koko was conditioned that when her handler started talking to her she had to sign "words" and she just happened to say a noun for a living creature. Now the gorilla wasn't actually stupid enough to think they could blame a sink-destroying incident on a tiny kitten, it just ran off random words. This is simultaneously treating KoKo as smarter and stupider than she actually was, she was smart enough to understand a kitten is too weak to rip out a sink... but not smart enough to understand questioning. See the whole study was undermined by selective anecdotes. The "researcher" did not include examples where KoKo's answers were so random they couldn't possibly be construed as either ironic humour, sarcasm or attempts at deception. Example: "well Coco what do you want for breakfast" "Tickle!" "Oh not Now Coco, what do you want to eat" "sky... walk... tire... head... orange..." "oh you want an orange for breakfast, here you go" Then Koko took the orange slowly, looking around then after a while ate it anyway. A telling example was KoKo met another Gorilla who had also been taught the same signs. They both signed to each other "tickle"... they did this for about 5 minutes signing it more and more then gave up. They didn't really know what the "tickle" sign meant, they only knew if they wanted to be tickled by the human handlers. It was simple pavlovian conditioning. Gorillas are able to "communicate" by deed such as tickling one and they will get tickled in return, but by direct communication of intent... that part of their brain just does not exist. They cannot comprehend abstract concepts such as a sign or phrase for "tickling" only pavlovian "if I do this then I'll be tickled". Koko never asked question. Made demands but never initiated exchange of information.

I only just realized I am one after watching this video. I find myself lying everyday about almost everything, even insignificant things like what clothes I'm wearing, what time I woke up, whether I completed an assignment or not, etc. I was joking when I wrote that second comment, but I think you already know that. If you have the balls to tell me that I'm not one, let me tell you this: My life sucks. No one trusts me anymore, not even my closest family and friends. People think I'm anorexic because I keep lying whether I had food or not. My grades in school are dropping because I lie about turning assignments in. And I'm perfectly fine with telling the truth in a KZbin comment, because KZbin comments are insignificant and dumb. I thought that my comment wouldn't attract attention; that people would understand and not question. Obviously, I was wrong.

***** A list of Jesus's lies: And Jesus answered and said to them, "Truly I say to you, if you have faith and do not doubt, you will not only do what was done to the fig tree, but even if you say to this mountain, `Be taken up and cast into the sea,' it will happen. "And all things you ask in prayer, believing, you will receive." (Matthew 21:21-22 NAS) Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks, receives; and the one who seeks, finds; and to the one who knocks, the door will be opened. (Matthew 7:7-8 NAB) Again I say to you, that if two of you agree on earth about anything that they may ask, it shall be done for them by My Father who is in heaven. For where two or three have gathered together in My name, I am there in their midst. (Matthew 18:19-20 NAS) Amen, I say to you, whoever says to this mountain, 'Be lifted up and thrown into the sea,' and does not doubt in his heart but believes that what he says will happen, it shall be done for him. Therefore I tell you, all that you ask for in prayer, believe that you will receive it and it shall be yours. (Mark 11:24-25 NAB) And I tell you, ask and you will receive; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks, receives; and the one who seeks, finds; and to the one who knocks, the door will be opened. (Luke 11:9-13 NAB) And whatever you ask in my name, I will do, so that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If you ask anything of me in my name, I will do it. (John 14:13-14 NAB) If you remain in me and my words remain in you, ask for whatever you want and it will be done for you. (John 15:7 NAB) It was not you who chose me, but I who chose you and appointed you to go and bear fruit that will remain, so that whatever you ask the Father in my name he may give you. (John 15:16 NAB) On that day you will not question me about anything. Amen, amen, I say to you, whatever you ask the Father in my name he will give you. Until now you have not asked anything in my name; ask and you will receive, so that your joy may be complete. (John 16:23-24 NAB)

Actually the saying "to be totally honest" and "believe me" isn't always correct. I tend to use it when admitting to something, or when I'm about to be blunt with someone. As well with contractions, I think with speak that does seem more plausible, but not with text. There's a fair number of people whom will keep their grammar in line when typing out something. Even when it's just a quick message to someone they know couldn't care less if it's right or not. XD Though I suppose it be a better indicator if you knew the person didn't normally do that. In which this way of phrasing might be used as an indicator. Personally I find determining whether someone is lying is to take notice on if actions and words are not matching up, if they're being vague or get nervous upon being asked to elaborate and/or take to much time thinking about what they are going to say before saying it (note: some people take time due to anxiety/an unreasonable lack of confidence with how they sound, and not due to the integrity of what they are saying), and of course when shit just plain doesn't make sense. Though this helps out more so (especially the latter) with people whom aren't really great liars which wasn't the group the video was really focussing on. So this paragraph is rather just pointless rambling. Fuck. Apologies to anyone whom wasted their time reading through that.

There are real people watching you who know that they have this condition. When you refer to us as less than normal, it feels like you're trying to shame us. And trust me, I've gotten enough of that from everyone else. So when I hear that bias from an informative channel...? Anyways, I at least hope that you add an annotation or something.

+TheWolfboy180 Pathological lying in the sense that you lie, even when it totally screws and destroys other people. E,g. "No, I did not cheat on you babe.". In that case, yes. You should be shamed. Screwing other people over when they did nothing to you, especially in that context, hurtful intentions intended.

+Irixion +readmeastory Let me make something ABUNDANTLY CLEAR that apparently, NO ONE seems to understand because they are TOO BUSY making ASSUMPTIONS: PATHOLOGICAL LIARS ARE PEOPLE THAT WILL LIE IN EVERYDAY SCENARIOS. THEY ALMOST ALWAYS HAVE NO INCENTIVE TO DO SO, NOR DO THEY HAVE ANY CONTROL OVER IT. Now that we've gotten that out of the way ... Two things to note here. One - yes, pathological lying is a mental illness. It is an uncontrollable function of some brains. Lying, as Hank stated, might (actually, almost certainly) be wired into humans' brains. We just happen to have that at a higher degree than others. Second thing: it's not because we are trying to be hurtful. It's not because we lie only when it's convenient. No, that's just assholes. Trust me, there are a lot more lying assholes than pathological liars, so it's easy to think that everyone who lies in that manner is an asshole. But we are NOT, and I'm F**KING TIRED of people telling me what I am. So shut up.

TheWolfboy180 I was just referring to my ex :v. She, is one of a kind, and deserves no mercy for her shenanigans. Knowing you have a mental illness, and not doing anything about it, and then throwing people under the bus? No. Yeah, no. Just no.

I think lying to strangers just streamlines conversations. They don't know you or the context of your life, so you give them a version that is easily understood by taking advantage of common clichés and themes

The intro reminded me of the intro to the show 'Lie To Me', I love it
