I just finished reading a book on human behavior and lie detection.

Some interesting concepts from the reading -

Hands near mouth
Hands Clenched (not open), Arms Crossed, Legs Tucked In
Placement of object (to form a pseudo-barrier) between him/her and you
Lack of Eye Contact
Creation of fictitious belief system ("You know I would never lie to you")
Uncomfortable with any silence - Must continue speaking until a verbal confirmation

What are your tell tale signs of someone lying to you?

That list is stupid. Those are signs of nervousness and insecurity.

18/20. If you sucked at smiles, watch the eyes.

The police are trained in all these - they manage to get it right 55% of the time in controlled tests, just the same as everyone else. They are much more confident of being able to spot a lie than other people though. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Look up microexpressions.

Also, I pwn smiles. 19/20
