Police Officers’ Lie Detection Accuracy: Interrogating Freely Versus Observing Video (2004, background): “In the first study (Vrij & Mann, 2001a), police officers made veracity judgments of video clips from an interrogation with a man who was suspected and later convicted of murder.”
"You're Guilty, So Just Confess!" Cognitive and Behavioral Confirmation Biases in the Interrogation Room. (2004, background): “However, Vrij and Mann (2001) showed police officers videotaped press conferences of family members pleading for help in finding their missing relatives.”
Interrogating to detect deception and truth : effects of strategic use of evidence (2005, background): “I will discuss these approaches separately, but it is important to note that all three approaches may be relevant simultaneously (Vrij & Mann, 2001a).”
The truth about lies: What works in detecting high‐stakes deception? (2010, background): “When Vrij and Mann (2001a) showed clips of White-type ‘pleaders’ to police officers to evaluate their truthfulness, the officers could have flipped a coin and performed as well.”
To Catch a Liar: Challenges for Research in Lie Detection Training (2003, background): “For example, Vrij and Mann (2001) provided useful insight into detecting real world lies of a murderer; however, their results were limited by the fact that they looked at only one murderer, who may or may not be a convincing liar.”
Guilty and innocent suspects’ strategies during police interrogations (2007, unknown): “…police officers, judges, and customs officers achieve only moderate hit rates when facing the task of assessing veracity (Ekman & O’Sullivan, 1991; Ekman, O’Sullivan, & Frank, 1999; Hartwig, Granhag, Strömwall, & Vrij, 2004; Köhnken, 1987; Vrij, 2004; Vrij & Graham, 1997; Vrij & Mann, 2001a,b).”
To act truthfully: Nonverbal behaviour and strategies during a police interrogation (2006, result): “This result was also found by Vrij and Mann ( 2001a ), studying the detection ability of police officers judging the veracity of other high-stake lies (people who lied in public press conferences about their missing relatives).”
