LIES AND HOW TO SPOT THEM
DVD
Connect with a representative to create a custom curriculum for your district.
Psychologist Paul Ekman, a pioneer in determining how facial expressions can reveal deception and emotions, offers fascinating insights into the different ways one can spot a lie.
Analyzing both contemporary examples (people lying to a customs officer about what they have to declare) and historical ones (Oliver North during Iran-Contra, Soviet spy Kim Philby, President Carter denying that there was an attempt to rescue the hostages in Iran), Ekman slows down video footage to pinpoint "microexpressions" that can give liars away. Note: many of the examples are foreign language and are subtitled.
