Description

Do “lie detectors” really live up to their name – or is the truth of polygraph testing a little different than Hollywood would have us believe? Joined by expert guest Coral Dando, a Professor of Forensic Psychology and an expert on how and why humans tell lies, we take a deep dive into the psychology of lies and the science of distinguishing truth from falsehood.


So how good are humans at knowing when someone is lying to them? Can polygraphs really use science to issue a verdict on “true or false?” And why does lie detector testing look so easy – and so certain – on the big screen? These are just some of the questions we explore with Coral, so join us on a journey through the human mind and its ability to discern fact from fiction!
