Unveiling the Truth Behind Lie Detection in UK Policing

Are polygraphs in UK policing a dangerous trend? We break down the science and ethics of so-called ‘lie detectors’. We advocate for better methods that deliver accuracy and justice. In the quest for truth and justice, UK policing is increasingly turning to polygraph testing, a method steeped in both intrigue and controversy. But as we […]

How to Read Body Language and Detect Lies

Lies come in various forms and can be totally fabricated stories similar in theme to the ones below: “We must do coffee sometime!” “Of course I love you!” “No, your bottom doesn’t look big in that dress”. “Sorry I am late. The traffic was so busy this morning!” “I did not have sexual relations with […]

How long does it take to become a lie detector?

This is a question we are often asked, and it depends on who you ask. It also depends on the methodology used for lie detection. Practitioners usually use one or more of the following three methods: Let’s have a look at these. The immediate challenge here is that polygraph subjects can be stressed or fearful […]

Artificial Intelligence and human behaviour

Many advertisers, tech giants, and border forces are using varying types of software in an attempt to monitor our emotions or detect whether we are being dishonest. The justification for this invasion on our privacy is that these systems will make our lives easier, safer, and even more enjoyable. The issue, however, is that all […]

Is Shamima Begum a threat to the UK?

The Bull***t About Lie Detection

The biggest frustration about delving into the world of non-verbal communication is the amount of rubbish one must wade through to find the good stuff. I’m not just talking about the trashy articles you find on online, even some of the best sellers on ‘body language’ and ‘non-verbal behaviour‘ are scary in how unsubstantiated they are. […]

EIA supports ACFE in the battle against global fraud using Behaviour Analysis

Dr. Wells came to recognize in the early days of the ACFE that the anti-fraud profession suffered from a glaring weakness: we simply did not know enough about the crimes we were trying to fight. So, with the aid of ACFE researchers John Warren and Andi McNeal, he set out to address the problem by […]

How can psychophysiological changes help us without a polygraph?

I have just completed some work for ITN, a UK TV producer, and we will be highlighting on Channel 5 (August 2017) how the psychophysiological signals gave away Stuart Hazell during a press interview where he was trying his best to disguise his involvement in the horrific murder of his step-granddaughter, Tia. While biometric indicators of […]

Behaviour Analysis

When others tell lies – They can’t help but leak the truth.

Think for a moment of a few interpretations of each of these following phrases. Assume that they are said to you by a close friend, or from your spouse or domestic partner: “Are you hungry?” “I hate you” “Go ahead”. The first statement could be a genuine interest in your need for food, or it […]

Elicitation – would you recognise it?

In a largely safe and pleasant world, we occasionally hear in the news about the fraud, corruption, and terrorism that is threatening our personal safety, our organizations and our countries. A key tool in this the environment is Elicitation. It is used against us. And we use it against the ‘bad- guys/gals’. So how do you know […]

Using Linguistic Cues for Detecting Fraudulent Accounts

In this Blog we explore the compelling case of using linguistic cues as a powerful tool for predicting and identifying fraudulent accounts. I was talking to a friend of mine discussing performance drags on active equity portfolios. It seem that portfolio managers often experience one or two of the stocks in the portfolio “blow up” exercising downward […]

Rivalry Between Islamic terrorists – understanding behavior

As we step back to try to understand the behavior and the motives of those driven to kill others and themselves for a cause it is interesting to see the duplications and differences between recent tragic events.
