PSY 300 Lecture Notes - Reid Technique, Polygraph, Psychopathy
Document Summary
Starts with the assumption that the person in front is guilty. Key assumption that pure innocence will not fall for this technique. Many different cultures in the world show that eye contact is considered disrespectful - therefore avoid eye contact. These cues are not accurate/not reliable as there are other possible reasonings. Your guilty and we can prove it . Seeing who suspect responds to stories you give them. Finding and explanation for why they did what they did. If they are slowing down their denials - you are onto a good theme. I would never lose my temper guy - ik you wouldn"t do that normally . Are you a psychopath or you are a good guy but it just happened once . Guilty cause you"re a good guy or guilty cause you"re a bad guy . All the jury would see is the confession. The interrogation is not shown in court in most cases.
