Understand Nervous Baseline Cues
- Identify nervous baseline behaviors distinct from lying by asking anxiety-provoking questions.
- Recognize personal nervous habits to reduce false positives in lie detection.
Spot Sudden Behavioral Red Flags
- Watch for sudden behavioral red flags like nose touching or incongruent nodding as signs of possible deception.
- Don't rely on a single cue; look for significant changes from baseline behavior.
Look for Clusters of Cues
- Look for clusters of three or more suspicious behavioral cues around the same topic.
- Investigate further only when multiple red flags appear to avoid misjudging casual behaviors.
