I am in my first year of psychology and I started off learning about the deceptions of the human mind. As in if someone where to think something that didn't actually happen and they were under a lie detector test it would say they are telling the truth on what didn't even happen. Something like that could be easily manipulated, and the choice to use it for good or bad is yours. Some people can do it such as a criminal could take a lie detector test and lets say he stole a large diamond. If they tested a bunch of people and asked him, if he could know he has the diamond, but attempt to cover up his mind and try ti temporarily semi convince himself he didn't take it, but at the same time knowing has he it he could easily pass with flying colors? If such a simple thought could trick that what is the point to that particular test. If one not so smart took the test would the tack in shoe really work to?

  1. That's why lie detector tests are aren't admissible in court. It's not concrete enough for all the reasonings you just went thru and more. But seriously dude, you are over-analyzing like crazy.
