This foundational session explores why people lie, examining the eight primary motives for deception and the cognitive processes that underlie dishonesty. Participants will learn to identify verbal and nonverbal cues associated with lying, understand the concept of behavioral ‘hotspots,’ and discover why rapport-building is essential for accurate deception detection.
Building on psychology fundamentals, this session provides practical interview strategies including the PEACE model and Strategic Use of Evidence techniques. Participants will learn how memory impacts truthfulness, recognize stress indicators and red flags during conversations, and understand what drives deceptive behavior while dispelling common myths about lie detection.
