		<description>Most of these are myths, with little, questionable, or no research to support them.

Some regular old boring facts:
Liars are less-cooperative, make more negative statements &amp; complaints, appear less friendly, and their faces appear less pleasant.[DePaulo et al. (2003)]


A Fun fact! Criminals are found to be the most accurate lie-detectors with an accuracy rate of 57%, closely followed by the Secret Service!</description>

		<description>I do a lot of those things in reference to other emotions. I don't lie, I shoot from the hip and have no regrets. 
*I don't make eye contact with confrontational people, but I also protest an accusation in a low voice once and allow the other person to decide to believe me or not. 
*If someone is being confrontational, then they change the subject to something else, anything else, I welcome the change, then I can get the upper hand and end the craziness. 
*My nose itches when I'm nervous and confrontation makes me nervous. 
I use the word "honestly" to brace people for something that may hurt their feelings. 
*Being a thorough and careful thinker, it takes me a second to wrap my head around an idea being conveyed by another person, so my emotional responses aren't immediate. 
*I speak in a low monotonous tone if you're in A LOT of trouble; it usually means I am SO upset with you that I cannot muster much more.

I know this list you shared are the 'text book' clues, but, I feel, the only way to catch a liar is by uncovering the truth. It usually does it on its own for me. I never have to be nosy or pushy; the truth simply falls into my lap. Most liars aren't thorough; they lie to you because they think your gullible, so, in turn, they don't cover their tracks well. If it doesn't fall into your lap and you still don't trust the person is telling you the truth, you have a choice... stay in contact with this person OR leave. It's your choice who you interact with and for how long. Sometimes walking away is the best thing you can do for yourself.

Thank you for trying to enlighten us. I understand what your were trying to do here. But, I feel, perpetuating myths is as bad as telling lies. I hope a lesson is learned here.</description>

		<description>Couldn't these signs be ones of stress/social anxiety rather than lying? It would be worth discriminating the differences between the two and developing a training to enhance ones credibility in socially stressful situations.</description>

		<description>"A person who is lying to you will avoid making eye contact."

This is nonsense as it very much depends upon a number of other factors that determine eye contact;
1) a person with low self esteem may well avoid eye contact
2) eye contact is a 'cultural' thing, many cultures see (sic) eye contact as threatening or offensive and so avoid eye contact
3) Someone who regards you as being superior to them (e.g. an employee, a pupil) may choose not to give eye contact.

Eye contact is more about control than communication. If you want the person you are talking to to give you eye contact, then you may well be seeking to control them (unknowingly, perhaps)</description>

		<description>I usually have fairly good "sensory perception".  However it does help a great deal to know the persons' usual mannerisms. "All of the above" would be correct, depending upon the individual.  I am thinking of two individuals right now, both of whom I know to be frequently dishonest, and also react quite differently.  They don't know that I'm aware but I picked up on it right away.  Fascinating subject, isn't it?</description>

		<description>How about this idea?  My husband and I promised our daughter that we would NEVER lie to her about anything.  She knew about Santa and the tooth fairy from the beginning.  At 8 years old, she loves Christmas and the idea of pretending that Santa Claus comes.  Honesty is always the best policy.  Tell the truth, let the chips fall where they may and deal with the results.</description>
