The problem is that cues to deception are typically faint and unreliable. The aim for interviewers, therefore, is to  ask questions that actively elicit and amplify verbal and nonverbal cues to deceit. We present an innovative lie detection perspec- tive based on cognitive load, demonstrating that it is possible to ask questions that raise cognitive load more in liars than in truth  tellers. This cognitive lie detection perspective consists of two approaches. The imposing-cognitive-load approach aims to make  the interview setting more difficult for interviewees. We argue that this affects liars more than truth tellers, resulting in more, and  more blatant, cues to deceit. The strategic-questioning approach examines different ways of questioning that elicit the most dif- ferential responses between truth tellers and liars.  <\/p>\n<p>Keywords  interviewing to detect deception, imposing cognitive load, strategic-questioning approach  <\/p>\n<p>Five decades of lie detection research have shown that people\u2019s  ability to detect deception by observing behavior and listening  to speech is limited\u2014with, on average, 54% of truths and lies  being correctly classified (C.F. Bond &#038; DePaulo, 2006). To  improve accuracy rates, researchers have attempted to unravel  the strategies used by certain individuals identified as having  extraordinary lie detection skills, so-called wizards (O\u2019Sullivan  &#038; Ekman, 2004). Is it the case that less sophisticated lie catchers  can learn from these wizards? Some scholars doubt whether  these identified individuals are real wizards (C.F. Bond &#038; Uysal,  2007), and to date, no publication has emerged about the strate- <\/p>\n<p>gies these alleged wizards use (G.D. Bond, 2009). Other  researchers have taught investigators \u2018\u2018diagnostic\u2019\u2019 cues to  deceit. The success of such training programs has been limited,  with only a few percentage points, on average, gained in accu- <\/p>\n<p>racy (Frank &#038; Feeley, 2003).  The problem is that cues to deception are typically faint and  <\/p>\n<p>unreliable (DePaulo et al., 2003). One reason is that the under- <\/p>\n<p>lying theoretical explanations for why such cues occur\u2014  nervousness and cognitive load\u2014also apply to truth tellers.  That is, both liars and truth tellers can be afraid of being disbe- <\/p>\n<p>lieved and may have to think hard when providing a statement.  Can interviewers ask questions that actively elicit and amplify  verbal and nonverbal cues to deceit? Efforts in the past (e.g.,  Reid\u2019s Behavior Analysis Interview) have concentrated on  <\/p>\n<p>eliciting and amplifying emotions (Vrij, 2008), but it is  doubtful whether questions that will necessarily raise more  concern in liars than in truth tellers can be asked (National  Research Council, 2003).  <\/p>\n<p>We will demonstrate, however, that it is possible to ask  questions that raise cognitive load more in liars than in truth  tellers. This cognitive lie detection perspective consists of two  approaches. The imposing-cognitive-load approach aims to  make the interview setting more difficult for interviewees.  We argue that this affects liars more than truth tellers, resulting  in more, and more blatant, cues to deceit. The strategic- <\/p>\n<p>questioning approach examines different ways of questioning  that elicit the most differential responses between truth tellers  and liars.  <\/p>\n<p>The Imposing-Cognitive-Load Approach  <\/p>\n<p>Lying can be more cognitively demanding than truth telling  (Vrij et al., 2008). First, formulating the lie may be cognitively  demanding.

Moreover,  liars must remember what they have said to whom in order to  maintain consistency. Liars should also refrain from providing  new leads. Second, liars are typically less likely than truth tell- <\/p>\n<p>ers to take their credibility for granted. As such, liars will be  more inclined than truth tellers to monitor and control their  demeanor in order to appear honest to the investigator, and  such monitoring and controlling is cognitively demanding.  Third, because liars do not take credibility for granted, they  may also monitor the investigator\u2019s reactions carefully in order  to assess whether they appear to be getting away with their lie,  and this too requires cognitive resources. Fourth, liars may be  preoccupied with the task of reminding themselves to role- <\/p>\n<p>play, which requires extra cognitive effort. Fifth, liars also have  to suppress the truth while they are fabricating, and this is also  cognitively demanding. Finally, while activation of the truth  often happens automatically, activation of the lie is more inten- <\/p>\n<p>tional and deliberate, and thus requires mental effort.  A lie catcher could exploit the different levels of cognitive  <\/p>\n<p>load that truth tellers and liars experience in order to discrimi- <\/p>\n<p>nate more effectively between them. Liars who require more  cognitive resources than truth tellers will have fewer cognitive  resources left over. If cognitive demand is further raised, which  could be achieved by making additional requests, liars may not  be as good as truth tellers in coping with these additional  requests.  <\/p>\n<p>One way to impose cognitive load is by asking interviewees  to tell their stories in reverse order. This increases cognitive  load because (a) it runs counter to the natural forward-order  coding of sequentially occurring events, and (b) it disrupts  reconstructing events from a schema (Gilbert &#038; Fisher,  2006). Another way to increase cognitive load is by instructing  interviewees to maintain eye contact with the interviewer.  When people have to concentrate on telling their stories\u2014like  when they are asked to recall what has happened\u2014they are  inclined to look away from their conversation partner (typically  to a motionless point), because maintaining eye contact is  distracting (Doherty-Sneddon &#038; Phelps, 2005). In two experi- <\/p>\n<p>ments, half of the liars and truth tellers were requested to recall  their stories in reverse order (Vrij et al., 2008) or to maintain  eye contact with the interviewer (Vrij, Mann, Leal, &#038; Fisher,  2010), whereas no instruction was given to the other half of  the participants. More cues to deceit emerged in the reverse- <\/p>\n<p>order and maintaining-eye-contact conditions than in the  control conditions. Observers who watched these videotaped  interviews could distinguish between truths and lies better in  the reverse-order condition and maintaining-eye-contact con- <\/p>\n<p>ditions than in the control conditions. For example, in the  reverse-order experiment, 42% of the lies were correctly clas- <\/p>\n<p>sified in the control condition, well below that typically  found in verbal and nonverbal lie detection research, suggest- <\/p>\n<p>ing that the lie detection task was difficult. Yet, in the  experimental condition, 60% of the lies were correctly classi- <\/p>\n<p>fied, more than typically found in this type of lie detection  research.  <\/p>\n<p>Strategic-Questioning Approach  <\/p>\n<p>Unanticipated questions  <\/p>\n<p>A consistent finding in deception research is that liars prepare  themselves when anticipating an interview (Hartwig, Granhag,  &#038; Stro\u0308mwall, 2007). Planning makes lying easier, and planned  lies typically contain fewer cues to deceit than do spontaneous  lies (DePaulo et al., 2003). However, the positive effects of  planning will only emerge if liars correctly anticipate which  questions will be asked. Investigators can exploit this limitation  by asking questions that liars do not anticipate. Though liars  can refuse to answer unanticipated questions, such \u2018\u2018I don\u2019t  know\u2019\u2019 or \u2018\u2018I can\u2019t remember\u2019\u2019 responses will create suspicion  if the questions are about central (but unanticipated) aspects of  the target event.  <\/p>\n<p>To test the unanticipated-questions technique, pairs of liars  and truth tellers were interviewed individually about having  had lunch together at a restaurant (Vrij et al., 2009). While the  truth tellers did have lunch together, the liars did not but were  instructed to pretend that they had. All pairs were given the  opportunity to prepare for the interview. The interviewer asked  conventional opening questions (e.g., \u2018\u2018What did you do in the  restaurant?\u2019\u2019), followed by questions about spatial details (e.g.,  \u2018\u2018In relation to where you sat, where were the closest diners?\u2019\u2019)  and temporal details (e.g., \u2018\u2018Who finished their food first, you  or your friend?\u2019\u2019). Further, they were asked to sketch the layout  of the restaurant. The spatial questions and drawing requests  came as a surprise to interviewees (this was established after  the interview). Based on the overlap in responses between the  two pair members to the anticipated questions, the liars and  truth tellers were not classified above chance level. However,  based on the responses to the unanticipated questions, up to  80% of pairs of liars and truth tellers were correctly classified  (i.e., the answers to spatial questions and the answers to draw- <\/p>\n<p>ings were less alike for the pairs of liars than pairs of truth tell- <\/p>\n<p>ers). Asking unanticipated questions about central topics  therefore elicited cues to deceit.  <\/p>\n<p>Asking unanticipated questions can also be effective when  assessing individual interviewees rather than pairs of inter- <\/p>\n<p>viewees. An interviewer could ask the same question twice.  When liars have not anticipated the question, they have to fab- <\/p>\n<p>ricate an answer on the spot. A liar\u2019s memory of this fabricated  answer may be more unstable than a truth teller\u2019s memory of  the actual event. Therefore, liars may contradict themselves  more than do truth tellers. This approach probably works best  if the questions are asked in different formats. Truth tellers will  have encoded the topic of investigation along more dimensions  than liars will have. Truth tellers should therefore be able to  recall the event more flexibly (along more dimensions) than  liars. When asked to verbally describe and sketch the layout  of a restaurant, truth tellers\u2019 verbal answers and drawings  showed more overlap than liars\u2019 verbal answers and drawings  (Leins, Fisher, Vrij, Leal, &#038; Mann, in press).  <\/p>\n<p>Drawings have never been used before as a lie detection  tool, but they have potential, as demonstrated in two further  experiments. Moreso than a verbal request, the request to  <\/p>\n<p>Downloaded from cdp.sagepub.com by guest on April 27, 2011 <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<div>                 http:\/\/cdp.sagepub.com\/             <\/div>\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>30 Vrij et al.  <\/p>\n<p>sketch forces the interviewee to convey spatial information.  That is, including an object within a drawing requires that  object to be spatially located. By comparison, verbally describ- <\/p>\n<p>ing an object in a room can be done without indicating its spa- <\/p>\n<p>tial location. If a liar has not experienced an item in a particular  location, he or she may still verbally describe the object but  will do so without referring to its location to avoid the risk of  misplacing it. Such a \u2018\u2018masking strategy\u2019\u2019 is not possible when  asked to sketch. As a result, a liar may instead decide against  sketching the object. In an occupations experiment, truth tellers  discussed their real occupations, whereas liars discussed occu- <\/p>\n<p>pations they pretended to have. When asked to verbally  describe the layout of their office, truth tellers\u2019 and liars\u2019  answers were equally detailed; however, when asked to sketch  the layout of their offices, liars\u2019 drawings were less detailed  than were those of truth tellers (Vrij, Mann, Leal, &#038; Fisher,  in press).  <\/p>\n<p>In a second experiment, 31 \u2018\u2018agents\u2019\u2019 were sent on a mission  during which they had to collect a decoder from another agent  (Vrij, Leal, et al., 2010). After delivering the decoder, they  were asked to (a) verbally describe and later to (b) sketch what  they could see at the location where they had received the deco- <\/p>\n<p>der. Half of the agents were requested to lie and half to tell the  truth. The liars were asked to pretend to have been on a differ- <\/p>\n<p>ent mission in which they received the decoder at a different  location. Only 2 out of 16 (12.5%) liars included an agent from  whom they pretended to have received the decoder in their  drawing, whereas 12 out of 15 truth tellers (80%) included the  real agent in their drawing. In their verbal descriptions, again 2  out of 16 (12.5%) liars mentioned the other agent, whereas 8  out of 15 (53%) truth tellers did so. In other words, like the  occupations experiment, truth tellers\u2019 and liars\u2019 drawings dif- <\/p>\n<p>fered more from each other than did truth tellers\u2019 and liars\u2019 ver- <\/p>\n<p>bal recalls. Liars were inclined to omit the agent from the  sketch and verbal description for two possible reasons: First,  the agent had not been present at the location they sketched\/  described, and therefore did not think about including him\/her.  Second, liars may have been reluctant to include people in their  drawings\/descriptions for fear of triggering further questions  about who those people actually were. Note that more truth tell- <\/p>\n<p>ers sketched (80%) than verbally described the agent (53%),  demonstrating why drawings were more informative about  deception than verbal recalls. After sketching the stable ele- <\/p>\n<p>ments, the truth tellers probably noticed that the agent was  missing from the drawing. Liars, however, will have been less  aware of this during their verbal recall, because of difficulties  in building a complete mental picture of their verbal recall.  <\/p>\n<p>Devil\u2019s-advocate approach  <\/p>\n<p>Spatial and drawing requests are unsuitable when examining  lying about opinions. Determining the veracity of such concep- <\/p>\n<p>tual representations can be important in security settings, as  demonstrated by the loss of seven CIA agents in Afghanistan.  They were killed via a suicide attack by a man they believed  was going to give them information about Taliban and  <\/p>\n<p>al-Qaeda targets in Pakistan\u2019s tribal areas. The CIA was aware  that he had posted extreme anti-American views on the Internet  but believed these to be part of a cover (Leal, Vrij, Mann, &#038;  Fisher, 2010).  <\/p>\n<p>The devil\u2019s-advocate technique aims to detect deception in  expressing opinions. Interviewees are first asked an opinion- <\/p>\n<p>eliciting question that invites them to argue in favor of their  personal view (\u2018\u2018What are your reasons for supporting the  U.S. in the war in Afghanistan?\u2019\u2019). This is followed by a  devil\u2019s-advocate question that asks interviewees to argue  against their personal view (\u2018\u2018Playing devil\u2019s advocate, is there  anything you can say against the involvement of the U.S. in  Afghanistan?\u2019\u2019).  <\/p>\n<p>People normally think more deeply about, and are more able  to generate, reasons that support rather than oppose their beliefs  (Ajzen, 2001). Therefore, truth tellers are likely to provide  more information in their responses to the true opinion- <\/p>\n<p>eliciting question than to the devil\u2019s-advocate question. This  pattern is unlikely to occur in liars, as for them, the devil\u2019s- <\/p>\n<p>advocate question is more compatible with their beliefs than  is the opinion-eliciting question. In effect, for liars, the  devil\u2019s-advocate approach is a setup wherein they first lie when  answering the opinion-eliciting question and then are lured  into telling the truth when answering the devil\u2019s-advocate  question. In an experiment, participants were asked to tell the  truth or lie about their views regarding issues they felt strongly  about, including the war in Afghanistan. Truth tellers\u2019 opinion- <\/p>\n<p>eliciting answers were longer than their devil\u2019s-advocate  answers, whereas no differences emerged in liars\u2019 answers to  the two types of question (Leal et al., 2010). Based on this prin- <\/p>\n<p>ciple, 75% of truth tellers and 78% of liars could be classified  correctly.  <\/p>\n<p>The strategic use of evidence (SUE)  <\/p>\n<p>Lying and truth-telling suspects enter police interviews in dif- <\/p>\n<p>ferent mental states (Granhag &#038; Hartwig, 2008). A guilty sus- <\/p>\n<p>pect will often have unique knowledge about the crime,  which, if recognized by the interviewer, makes it obvious that  he or she is the perpetrator. The guilty suspect\u2019s main concern  will be to ensure that the interviewer does not gain that knowl- <\/p>\n<p>edge. Innocent suspects face the opposite problem, fearing  that the interviewer will not learn or believe what they did  at the time of the crime. These different mental states result  in different strategies for liars and truth tellers (Hartwig  et al., 2007). Guilty suspects are inclined to use avoidance  strategies (e.g., in free recall, avoiding mentioning where they  were at a certain time) or denial strategies (e.g., denying hav- <\/p>\n<p>ing been at a certain place at a certain time when directly  asked). In contrast, innocent suspects neither avoid nor escape  but are forthcoming and \u2018\u2018tell the truth like it happened\u2019\u2019  (Granhag &#038; Hartwig, 2008).  <\/p>\n<p>In the SUE technique, the investigator aims to detect  these differential strategies via a strategic use of the avail- <\/p>\n<p>able evidence (e.g., possible incriminating information). The  purpose of SUE is to ask open questions (e.g., \u2018\u2018What did  <\/p>\n<p>Downloaded from cdp.sagepub.com by guest on April 27, 2011 <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<div>                 http:\/\/cdp.sagepub.com\/             <\/div>\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>31 Outsmarting the Liars  <\/p>\n<p>you do last Sunday afternoon?\u2019\u2019) followed by specific ques- <\/p>\n<p>tions (e.g., \u2018\u2018Did you or anyone else drive your car last Sun- <\/p>\n<p>day afternoon?\u2019\u2019) without revealing that evidence (e.g.,  closed-circuit TV images of the interviewee\u2019s car driven  in a specific location on that Sunday afternoon). Truth tell- <\/p>\n<p>ers are likely to mention driving the car on that Sunday  afternoon either spontaneously or after  being prompted   (e.g., \u2018\u2018tell the truth like it happened\u2019\u2019 strategy). Liars are  unlikely to mention driving the car spontaneously (e.g.,  avoidance) or after being prompted (e.g., denial). A denial  will contradict the evidence.  <\/p>\n<p>Hartwig, Granhag, Stro\u0308mwall, and Kronkvist (2006)  experimentally tested the SUE technique. Prior to the experi- <\/p>\n<p>ment, half of the interviewers were SUE trained and were  instructed to interview the suspect using the SUE technique.  The remaining interviewers were instructed to interview the  suspect in the style of their own choice. The untrained inter- <\/p>\n<p>viewers obtained 56.1% accuracy (similar to that typically  found in nonverbal and verbal lie detection research), whereas  the SUE-trained interviewers obtained 85.4% accuracy.  Guilty suspects contradicted the evidence more often than did  innocent suspects, particularly when questioned by SUE- <\/p>\n<p>trained interviewers.  <\/p>\n<p>Final Thoughts  <\/p>\n<p>The lie detection techniques that we have discussed can be  employed in various settings. SUE can be used when evidence  is available, and the devil\u2019s-advocate technique can be  employed when examining the veracity of opinions. The other  techniques can be employed to determine the veracity of state- <\/p>\n<p>ments about past activities but, in theory, also to determine the  veracity of statements about future activities (intentions). We  have shown that the unanticipated questions technique can be  employed to identify deceit in both individuals and networks  (multiple liars). Future research should examine whether the  techniques are sensitive to countermeasures\u2014that is, liars\u2019  attempts to fool investigators. The unanticipated-question tech- <\/p>\n<p>nique should be immune to this, as its method is to ask ques- <\/p>\n<p>tions that a liar has not anticipated and therefore not prepared  answers for. Due to individual differences in people\u2019s  responses, within-subjects lie detection techniques are pre- <\/p>\n<p>ferred because they control for such individual differences. The  unanticipated-questions and devil\u2019s-advocate techniques are  within-subjects techniques.  <\/p>\n<p>Recommended Reading  <\/p>\n<p>DePaulo, B.M., Lindsay, J.L., Malone, B.E., Muhlenbruck, L., Charlton,  K., &#038; Cooper, H.
