[ Google Scholar] An important extension of the current paradigm would be to incorporate more interactive designs, as many veracity judgments in forensic settings are done on the basis of face-to-face interactions [ 81]. In an optimistic prediction, the open posture effect may foster an affiliation between the sender and the judge [ 82], leading to similar embodied states (i.e., exchanging information accurately, especially for truth-tellers), activating similar cognitive and affective processes [ 83], enhancing empathy and rapport [ 84], and improving communication. Of note, the posture effects can be bidirectional, influencing both the adopter and the observer, which may produce additional effects of interest, such as increased impression management by liars or less critical appraisals by judges, as proposed by the Interpersonal Deception Theory (IDT) framework [ 85].

Stakes are the rewards to the liar for escaping detection and/or the punishment that they would receive for being caught. Stakes make controlling one’s behavior channels more difficult [ 35] and increase the likelihood of displaying unintended behavioral cues associated with lying, both in quantity and intensity [ 36, 65], which can make deception detection easier [ 66, 67]. If the posture manipulation affects the attention judges give to behavioral cues a difference in accuracy should be more pronounced for the high-stake lies. The second benefit is uncovering the stability and generalizability of the posture effect on different lie scenarios. It should be noted that the role of stakes in lie detection is a debated topic. The meta-analysis by DePaulo and colleagues [ 33] reported an effect of motivation (a close proxy to stakes) on the detectability of deception, however, the more recent meta-analysis by Hartwig and Bond [ 34] failed to replicate this finding.

I felt that it's somewhat detrimental to have a manager who holds hiring and firing power to be sitting there in judgement of people's rating decisions.People are poor at detecting if others are lying or telling the truth, usually being only slightly better than predicted by chance [ 1, 2]. They are also overconfident in their judgments [ 3] and tend to assume most statements people make are honest, commonly referred to as the truth bias [ 4]. The majority of past research attempting to improve deception detection accuracy has focused either on differences between judges (e.g., experience or training; [ 5, 6]) or between senders (e.g., demeanor or physical characteristics; [ 7, 8]). Here, we raise the possibility that simply changing the judge’s body posture might affect their ability to perceive and interpret behavioral information from a sender. A MANOVA was considered for analyzing the eye gazing data, however, a preliminary inspection revealed that several dependent measures were either correlated too strongly ( rs > 0.9; multicollinearity) or not at all ( rs < 0.2), and several assumptions for this analysis were violated (i.e., homogeneity of covariance, Box’s M, ps < 0.001; multivariate normality, Royston’s Test, ps < 0.001). An inspection of the skewness and kurtosis, in addition to Q–Q plots and histograms, indicated that the assumption of normality of variance was violated for several AOIs. Therefore, the appropriate dependent variables were transformed to obtain a normal distribution of data and analyzed using between-subjects t-tests. Wilkes, C.; Kydd, R.; Sagar, M.; Broadbent, E.
