I saw a funny scene in a movie today. Most that saw it probably did not even think about it. The police hooked up a psychopath to a lie detector to see if she was telling the truth. - Eh.
As I stated before in a previous post about Caylee Anthony:
- More appropriate details provided by psychopathic offenders compared to nonpsychopathic offenders when lying (but no difference when telling the truth)
- No difference in narrative length between the true and false conditions among psychopathic offenders, and for both groups, truthful narratives were longer than false narratives
- For psychopathic offenders, spontaneous corrections more frequent when lying compared to telling the truth. This is opposite to the finding with non-criminal populations - according to CBCA, the presence of spontaneous corrections is thought to be associated with credibility.
- Psychopathic offenders judged less credible than non-psychopathic offenders, even when telling the truth. Seven times less likely to be judged credible to be precise.
- Narratives produced by psychopathic offenders were judged to be less coherent overall than narratives produced by non-psychopathic offenders.
