The study analyzed video recordings of interviews with 16 criminal suspects who initially lied but later told the truth. The researchers coded behaviors like gaze aversion, blinking, and hand movements to identify differences between lying and truth-telling. They found that liars paused longer between responses and blinked less than when telling the truth, which may indicate higher cognitive load while lying. However, there were many individual differences, so no definitive behavioral indicators of lying could be identified.
This lecture slide concerns the accuracy report of eye witness testimony. How accurate are eye-witness testimonials? And how can we interview witness so that their reports can be more accurate? It identifies the 'Cognitive Interview Model' which is a interview approach for increasing accuracy of reports while minimizes false information. One of the main mistake of interviewers are asking misleading questions. For instance, 'did you see the gun?' as opposed to 'did you see 'a' gun?' First part was misleading because it implies that a gun was witnessed when in fact there may not have been a gun present.

BUS 308 Week 2 Lecture 1
Examining Differences - overview
Expected Outcomes
After reading this lecture, the student should be familiar with:
1. The importance of random sampling.
2. The meaning of statistical significance.
3. The basic approach to determining statistical significance.
4. The meaning of the null and alternate hypothesis statements.
5. The hypothesis testing process.
6. The purpose of the F-test and the T-test.
Overview
Last week we collected clues and evidence to help us answer our case question about
males and females getting equal pay for equal work. As we looked at the clues presented by the
salary and comp-ratio measures of pay, things got a bit confusing with results that did not see to
be consistent. We found, among other things, that the male and female compa-ratios were fairly
close together with the female mean being slightly larger. The salary analysis showed a different
view; here we noticed that the averages were apparently quite different with the males, on
average, earning more. Contradictory findings such as this are not all that uncommon when
examining data in the “real world.”
One issue that we could not fully address last week was how meaningful were the
differences? That is, would a different sample have results that might be completely different, or
can we be fairly sure that the observed differences are real and show up in the population as
well? This issue, often referred to as sampling error, deals with the fact that random samples
taken from a population will generally be a bit different than the actual population parameters,
but will be “close” enough to the actual.
Nutraceutical market, scope and growth: Herbal drug technologyLokesh Patil
As consumer awareness of health and wellness rises, the nutraceutical market—which includes goods like functional meals, drinks, and dietary supplements that provide health advantages beyond basic nutrition—is growing significantly. As healthcare expenses rise, the population ages, and people want natural and preventative health solutions more and more, this industry is increasing quickly. Further driving market expansion are product formulation innovations and the use of cutting-edge technology for customized nutrition. With its worldwide reach, the nutraceutical industry is expected to keep growing and provide significant chances for research and investment in a number of categories, including vitamins, minerals, probiotics, and herbal supplements.

Plant breeding for disease resistance is a strategy to reduce crop losses caused by disease. Plants have an innate immune system that allows them to recognize pathogens and provide resistance. However, breeding for long-lasting resistance often involves combining multiple resistance genes
ESR spectroscopy in liquid food and beverages.pptxPRIYANKA PATEL
With increasing population, people need to rely on packaged food stuffs. Packaging of food materials requires the preservation of food. There are various methods for the treatment of food to preserve them and irradiation treatment of food is one of them. It is the most common and the most harmless method for the food preservation as it does not alter the necessary micronutrients of food materials. Although irradiated food doesn’t cause any harm to the human health but still the quality assessment of food is required to provide consumers with necessary information about the food. ESR spectroscopy is the most sophisticated way to investigate the quality of the food and the free radicals induced during the processing of the food. ESR spin trapping technique is useful for the detection of highly unstable radicals in the food. The antioxidant capability of liquid food and beverages in mainly performed by spin trapping technique.
Observation of Io’s Resurfacing via Plume Deposition Using Ground-based Adapt...Sérgio Sacani
Since volcanic activity was first discovered on Io from Voyager images in 1979, changes
on Io’s surface have been monitored from both spacecraft and ground-based telescopes.
Here, we present the highest spatial resolution images of Io ever obtained from a groundbased telescope. These images, acquired by the SHARK-VIS instrument on the Large
Binocular Telescope, show evidence of a major resurfacing event on Io’s trailing hemisphere. When compared to the most recent spacecraft images, the SHARK-VIS images
show that a plume deposit from a powerful eruption at Pillan Patera has covered part
of the long-lived Pele plume deposit. Although this type of resurfacing event may be common on Io, few have been detected due to the rarity of spacecraft visits and the previously low spatial resolution available from Earth-based telescopes. The SHARK-VIS instrument ushers in a new era of high resolution imaging of Io’s surface using adaptive
optics at visible wavelengths.
Professional air quality monitoring systems provide immediate, on-site data for analysis, compliance, and decision-making.
Monitor common gases, weather parameters, particulates.
DERIVATION OF MODIFIED BERNOULLI EQUATION WITH VISCOUS EFFECTS AND TERMINAL V...Wasswaderrick3
In this book, we use conservation of energy techniques on a fluid element to derive the Modified Bernoulli equation of flow with viscous or friction effects. We derive the general equation of flow/ velocity and then from this we derive the Pouiselle flow equation, the transition flow equation and the turbulent flow equation. In the situations where there are no viscous effects , the equation reduces to the Bernoulli equation. From experimental results, we are able to include other terms in the Bernoulli equation. We also look at cases where pressure gradients exist. We use the Modified Bernoulli equation to derive equations of flow rate for pipes of different cross sectional areas connected together. We also extend our techniques of energy conservation to a sphere falling in a viscous medium under the effect of gravity. We demonstrate Stokes equation of terminal velocity and turbulent flow equation. We look at a way of calculating the time taken for a body to fall in a viscous medium. We also look at the general equation of terminal velocity.

Samantha Mann, Aldert Vrij,
and Ray Bull
2. Objectives
To identify certain body movements, those are
present when a person is lying.
Differentiate between a novel liar and
authentic liars.
How did they conduct the study and what did
they find out.

Are you a liar? You would probably answer "no". Let's ask it
another way. How many times did you say something that
was not completely true last week? For many reasons, the
answer is probably quite a lot! We're all liars some of the
time, but for some people lying may be extremely important.
How do people act when lying is the only think they can do
to keep themselves out of jail? Do they blink a lot? Sweat?
Let's find out.
5. How to Spot a Liar
Fidgeting?
Decreased eye contact?
Actually most people move less and to date
there has been no credible study done to
show any connection between eye contact
and truthfulness
6. Background
The behavior of liars has traditionally been studied
experimentally, in the laboratory
Can you see a problem with this?
Vrij and Mann (2001) Differences between lying in ‘real
life settings’ & lying in an ‘experimental situation’ led to
examining videotape of a murder in police custody
This study extends the findings of that study with a larger
sample
7. AIM
1. To determine if there are systematic behavioral indicators
to distinguish between those who are telling lies and those
who are telling the truth.
2. To determine if cognitive load causes changes in behavior
related to lying or telling the truth
8. Cognitive Load- Hypothetical construct used to describe
the load related to the executive control of working
memory.
• Cognitive psychologists argue that during complex
mental activities the amount of information & interactions
that must be processed simultaneously can either under-
load, or overload the finite amount of working memory
one possesses
9. Sample
An opportunity sample of 16 police’ suspects
• 13 males & 3 females
• 4 juveniles (three-13 y.o. & one-15y.o.) & 12 adults (under 65).
• 15 were Caucasian (English as a 1st language) & 1 Asian
(Punjabi was his 1st but was fluent English)
All interviews were conducted in English.
Crimes for which participants were being interviewed
• Theft (9)
• Arson (2)
• Attempted rape
• murder (4)
Most participants (10), were known to the police & had been
interviewed about other crimes
10. Sample
Police detectives at Kent County Constabulary (U.K) were
asked if they could recall videotaped interviews in which they
had participated, where the suspect had initially lied and later
told the truth
Once cases meeting this criterion were found the case files
were gathered up.
11. Sample
An hour-long videotape consisting of clips from 16 suspects.
The truths that were selected were chosen so they could be
as comparable as possible in nature to the lies
Truthful response to an easy question such as giving a name
and address is not comparable to a deceitful response
regarding whether or not the suspect has committed a
murder.
12. Method – Natural experiment/quasi
experiment
• The independent variable was not directly
manipulated by the experimenter
1) What was the independent variable?
Whether they decided to tell the truth or lies.
2) What was the dependent variable?
The accompanying body language.
14. Procedure
1. Total of 65 video clips (27 truth / 38 lies)
2. Length of clip & length of response varied but not
significant in terms of analysis of behavior.
15. Observers were instructed to ‘code the video
footage’ –
Content analysis • Not informed about the
hypothesis or nature of the video clips
What do we call this? deception
What is it used to control? Demand
characteristics.
16. Content Analysis
A methodology used in the social sciences for objectively
studying the content of a communication (written work,
speech, film)
It is a quantitative method producing data that is often
percentages or numerical, serving two important purposes:
• to remove much of the subjectivity from summaries
• to simplify the detection of trends
17. Behaviors recorded
1. Gaze Aversion
2. Blinking
3. Head Movements
4. Speech Disturbances
5. Pauses
6. Hand & Arm Movements (These Were Originally Coded
Individually)
7. Self-manipulations
8. Illustrators
9. Hand-finger Movements
18. Each of the coded behaviors was transformed into a
format, so that the truths and lies could be directly
compared
The result was one truth-telling score, and one lie telling
score for each behavior for each participant
19. Controls
1. Two observers told to independently code behavior
were compared for on a sample of the videos (not all of them)
2. What is this called? Observer triangulation to check inter
rater reliabilty
3. What is it used to control? Participant bias
4.A Pearson correlation statistical test • A measure of the
strength of a linear association between two variables
5. Strong consistency between the two coders, in other words
there was no significant difference between the two coders.
20. Results
1. Behavioral results for the 6 categories were not
significantly different
2. Noticeable differences were found between the hand
and arm movements (truthful 15.31; lying 10.80) and
pauses (truthful 3.73, lying 5.31)
3. The deceptive group paused longer and blinked less
but there were many individual differences
4. http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_em
bedded&v=P_6vDLq64gE
21. Explanations
Give some support for the cognitive load process in
explaining deceptive behavior, as both fewer blinking and
longer pauses are possible indicators of cognitive load
However, because they did not measure nor manipulate
cognitive load and nervousness in this study, all conclusions
are speculative
22. Summary
The body language of authentic liars is different from people
who lie in normal situations.
The best indicators are pauses and blinking.
23. Alternative study
Mann et al conducted a quasi experiment. An alternative
study method might have been to conduct a true lab
experiment.
1. Describe a laboratory experiment as an experimental
method. (5)
2. How could they have conducted an experiment with a
similar aim, but as a true lab experiment?
Write a description of the study, including the who, what,
where and how.(10)
2. What would the advantages and disadvantages of such an
experiment be, compared to the original?
Evaluate this new study
in practical and methodological terms. (10)
