Research shows we encounter nearly 200 lies a day, making deception detection a crucial skill, especially for psychologists who rely on accurate information to treat clients effectively. Lies, whether big or small, can distort a psychologist's understanding of a client's behavior, potentially hindering therapy. While most people are only about 54% accurate at detecting deception, training can boost this accuracy to 90%.

This specialized course equips participants with advanced skills to detect deception, including analyzing body language, facial expressions, and narrative statements for signs of dishonesty. It covers the science and psychology of deception, debunks myths, and teaches scientifically validated cues of deceit.

The techniques taught are valuable in many contexts and especially useful for psychology professionals.

Note: Pamela offers an 11-module masterclass named Deception Detection: Interviewing and Getting to the Truth. This course, Deception Detection, teaches the same material as the first half of the masterclass. The second half of the masterclass is also offered separately as Interviewing and Getting to the Truth.

THE CLASS: The first course in a two-part series on Deception Detection, Interviewing and Getting to the Truth, is video driven with 23 engaging videos.

As one student put it, "I absolutely love that I can add 'Expert in deception detection' to my resume. I've taken several similar courses and none of them go this deep or provide so many tricks for getting to the truth. What impressed me was that the material is fun...but then you realize you are learning a system for reading people no one else has."

I can’t wait to see you in class! It’s lots of fun, and our community is growing fast.
