Examples of deception range from false statements to misleading claims in which relevant information is omitted, leading the receiver to infer false conclusions. For example, a claim that "<a href="/wiki/Sunflower_oil" title="Sunflower oil">sunflower oil</a> is beneficial to brain health due to the presence of <a href="/wiki/Omega-3_fatty_acid" title="Omega-3 fatty acid">omega-3 fatty acids</a>" may be misleading, as it leads the receiver to believe sunflower oil will benefit brain health more so than other foods. In fact, sunflower oil is relatively low in omega-3 fatty acids and is not particularly good for brain health, so while this claim is technically true, it leads the receiver to infer false information. Deception itself is intentionally managing verbal or nonverbal messages so that the message receiver will believe in a way that the message sender knows is false. <a href="/wiki/Intention" title="Intention">Intent</a> is critical with regard to deception. Intent differentiates between deception and an honest mistake.

In 1641 Descartes published his <a href="/wiki/Descarte%27s_meditations" class="mw-redirect" title="Descarte&#39;s meditations">meditations</a>, in which he introduced the notion of the <a href="/wiki/Deus_deceptor" class="mw-redirect" title="Deus deceptor">Deus deceptor</a>, a posited being capable of deceiving the thinking <a href="https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/ego" class="extiw" title="wikt:ego">ego</a> about <a href="/wiki/Reality" title="Reality">reality</a>.

The Deus deceptor is a mainstay of so-called <a href="/wiki/Skeptical" class="mw-redirect" title="Skeptical">skeptical</a> arguments, which purport to put into question our knowledge of reality. The punch of the argument is that all we know might be wrong, since we might be deceived. <a href="/wiki/Stanley_Cavell" title="Stanley Cavell">Stanley Cavell</a> has argued that all skepticism has its root in this fear of deception. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="In_psychological_research">In psychological research</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Deception&amp;action=edit&amp;section=20" title="Edit section: In psychological research"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Psychological research often needs to deceive the subjects as to its actual purpose. The rationale for such deception is that humans are sensitive to how they appear to others (and to themselves) and this self-consciousness might interfere with or distort from how they actually behave outside of a research context (where they would not feel they were being scrutinized). For example, if a psychologist is interested in learning the conditions under which students cheat on tests, directly asking them, "how often do you cheat?", might result in a high percent of "socially desirable" answers and the researcher would, in any case, be unable to verify the accuracy of these responses. In general, then, when it is unfeasible or naive to simply ask people directly why or how often they do what they do, researchers turn to the use of deception to distract their participants from the true behavior of interest. So, for example, in a study of cheating, the participants may be told that the study has to do with how intuitive they are. During the process, they might be given the opportunity to look at (secretly, they think) another participant's [presumably highly intuitively correct] answers before handing in their own. At the conclusion of this or any research involving deception, all participants must be told of the true nature of the study and why deception was necessary (this is called debriefing). Moreover, it is customary to offer to provide a summary of the results to all participants at the conclusion of the research. </p><p>Though commonly used and allowed by the ethical guidelines of the American Psychological Association, there has been debate about whether or not the use of deception should be permitted in psychological research <a href="/wiki/Experiment" title="Experiment">experiments</a>. Those against deception object to the ethical and methodological issues involved in its use. Dresser (1981) notes that, ethically, researchers are only to use subjects in an experiment after the subject has given informed consent. However, because of its very nature, a researcher conducting a deception experiment cannot reveal its true purpose to the subject, thereby making any consent given by a subject misinformed (p.&#160;3). <a href="/wiki/Diana_Baumrind" title="Diana Baumrind">Baumrind</a> (1964), criticizing the use of deception in the <a href="/wiki/Milgram_experiment" title="Milgram experiment">Milgram (1963) obedience experiment</a>, argues that deception experiments inappropriately take advantage of the implicit trust and obedience given by the subject when the subject volunteers to participate (p.&#160;421). </p><p>From a practical perspective, there are also methodological objections to deception. Ortmann and Hertwig (1998) note that "deception can strongly affect the reputation of individual labs and the profession, thus contaminating the participant pool" (p.&#160;806). If the subjects in the experiment are suspicious of the researcher, they are unlikely to behave as they normally would, and the researcher's control of the experiment is then compromised (p.&#160;807). Those who do not object to the use of deception note that there is always a constant struggle in balancing "the need for conducting research that may solve social problems and the necessity for preserving the dignity and rights of the research participant" (Christensen, 1988, p.&#160;670). They also note that, in some cases, using deception is the only way to obtain certain kinds of information, and that prohibiting all deception in research would "have the egregious consequence of preventing researchers from carrying out a wide range of important studies" (Kimmel, 1998, p.&#160;805). </p><p>Additionally, findings suggest that deception is not harmful to subjects. Christensen's (1988) review of the literature found "that research participants do not perceive that they are harmed and do not seem to mind being misled" (p.&#160;668). Furthermore, those participating in experiments involving deception "reported having enjoyed the experience more and perceived more educational benefit" than those who participated in non-deceptive experiments (p.&#160;668). Lastly, it has also been suggested that an unpleasant treatment used in a deception study or the unpleasant implications of the outcome of a deception study may be the underlying reason that a study using deception is perceived as unethical in nature, rather than the actual deception itself (Broder, 1998, p.&#160;806; Christensen, 1988, p.&#160;671). </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="In_social_research">In social research</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Deception&amp;action=edit&amp;section=21" title="Edit section: In social research"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Some methodologies in social research, especially in <a href="/wiki/Psychology" title="Psychology">psychology</a>, involve deception.

With the Online Disinhibition Theory, a person may not feel the need to censor their communication because of the online environment. This often occurs due to the idea that on the internet, no one can physically know whether the communication one is using is true or not. &#160; This can lead to falsehoods since communication is not occurring face-to-face, making it difficult to perceive the words of other people. Online Disinhibition typically occurs on social media such as group chats or online games.

The <a href="/wiki/Interpersonal_deception_theory" title="Interpersonal deception theory">interpersonal deception theory</a> posits that interpersonal deception is a dynamic, iterative process of mutual influence between a sender, who <a href="/wiki/Manipulation_(psychology)" title="Manipulation (psychology)">manipulates</a> information to depart from the truth, and a receiver, who attempts to establish the validity of the message.<sup id="cite_ref-42" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-42"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>42<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> A deceiver's actions are interrelated to the message receiver's actions. It is during this exchange that the deceiver will reveal verbal and nonverbal information about deceit.<sup id="cite_ref-43" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-43"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>43<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> Some research has found that there are some cues that may be correlated with deceptive communication, but scholars frequently disagree about the effectiveness of many of these cues to serve as reliable indicators.<sup id="cite_ref-44" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-44"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>44<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> A cross cultural study conducted to analyze human behavior and deception concluded detecting deception often has to do with the judgements of a person and how they interpret <a href="/wiki/Nonverbal_cues" class="mw-redirect" title="Nonverbal cues">non-verbal cues.</a> One's personality can influence these judgements also as some people are more confident in deceiving compared to others.<sup id="cite_ref-:0_45-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-:0-45"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>45<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> Noted deception scholar Aldert Vrij even states that there is no nonverbal behavior that is uniquely associated with deception.<sup id="cite_ref-Vrij,_2008_46-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Vrij,_2008-46"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>46<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> As previously stated, a specific behavioral indicator of deception does not exist.

If a response to a question has a lot disturbances, less talking time, repeated words, and poor logical structure, then the person may be lying. Vocal cues such as frequency height and variation may also provide meaningful clues to deceit.<sup id="cite_ref-50" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-50"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>50<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p><p>Fear specifically causes heightened arousal in liars, which manifests in more frequent blinking, pupil dilation, speech disturbances, and a higher pitched voice. The liars that experience guilt have been shown to make attempts at putting distance between themselves and the deceptive communication, producing "nonimmediacy cues" These can be verbal or physical, including speaking in more indirect ways and showing an inability to maintain eye contact with their conversation partners.<sup id="cite_ref-51" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-51"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>51<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> Another cue for detecting deceptive speech is the tone of the speech itself. Streeter, Krauss, Geller, Olson, and Apple (1977) have assessed that fear and anger, two emotions widely associated with deception, cause greater arousal than grief or indifference, and note that the amount of stress one feels is directly related to the frequency of the voice.<sup id="cite_ref-52" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-52"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>52<span
