::whello:: Hello.  According to Swedish researchers, adults accurately detect deception in children ages 11-13 years only 51.5% of the time.  Are we stupid?  Too trusting?  Or are 11-13 year old kids really good at playing with our minds?  Tell us your stories! 


Children’s prepared and unprepared lies: can adults see through their strategies?

Just to show how bad people are at detecting lies, even 11-13 year old kids can easily pull the wool over our eyes! Leif Stromwall and colleagues in Sweden found that adults could do no better than 46% accuracy when children had a chance to prepare their lies. Even when lies were not prepared they only got 57% correct:

We investigated adults’ ability to detect children’s prepared and unprepared lies and truths. Furthermore, we examined children’s strategies when lying. Thirty children (11-13 years) were interviewed about one self-experienced and one invented event each. Half had prepared their statements, the other half not. Sixty adult observers assessed the veracity of 10 videotaped statements each. Overall deception detection accuracy (51.5%) was not better than chance. The adults showed higher accuracy for unprepared statements (56.6%), than prepared statements (46.1%). The adults reported to have used more verbal than nonverbal cues to deception, especially the Detail criterion. The most frequent verbal strategy reported by the children was to use real-life components (e.g. own or others’ experiences); the most frequent nonverbal strategy was to stay calm. Arguably, the low accuracy is due to adults’ failure to see through the lying children’s strategies. Copyright © 2006 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

I'm finding that granddaughter is very good at ADD LIBBING!  Which in turn, is actually a lie!  Example;  Grandma, can Shirly come home from school with me today, (she's calling me from the school sounding all up set about her friend)?  Shirly is crying and she really needs to talk to someone!  Well, I'm suspicious, but I say ok, as long as her mom knows she's coming!  They get here, and I'm ready for some horrible out cry like "My parents are getting a divorce. Or maybe, My DOG DIED LAST NIGHT!  What I get is...................The guy I think is cute didn't look at me today.  Not even once!  Ok, NOW I'M MAD!!  I'm realizing, granddaughter knew this all along......................BUT knowing I would fall for it, she lied to get me to say yes!  I'm finding all kinds of ways little girls "manipulate".  :yep:

According to my friends with pre-adolescent grandchildren, grandparents are even more vulnerable to manipulation.  Knowing how much I adore my grandson, I'm not surprised.

Most loving parents have unconditional positive regard for their children, but grandparents have unconditional Pollyanna regard for their grandchildren, ha-ha.

Grandchildren know their grandparents cherish them above all others and frequently take their grandparents on a ride through the valley of half-truths and white lies.

The good news is, she knows you love her!  In light of all she's been through, she is one very lucky girl.   Thankfully, the half-truths are only about "a guy didn't look at me."

Or..............this is the one I KNOW about!  ::chuckle::   The funny thing is, I actually do know when she is speaking "half truths"  a lot of the time.  When all is said and done,  It turned out I had her pegged, but went with it anyway!  ::scratch::   :dunno:
