We tested the accuracy of Scientific Content Analysis (SCAN), a verbal lie detection tool that is used world-wide by federal law enforcement and military agencies. Sixty-one participants were requested to write down the truth, an outright lie or a concealment lie about activities they had just completed. The statements were coded with SCAN and with another verbal lie detection tool, Reality Monitoring (RM). RM discriminated significantly between truth tellers and outright liars and between truth tellers and concealment liars, whereas SCAN did not discriminate between truth tellers and either kind of liar. Implications of the findings for the suitability of SCAN as a lie detection tool are discussed.
我们测试了科学内容分析（SCAN）的准确性，这是一种世界范围内被联邦执法和军事机构使用的言语测谎工具。61 名参与者被要求写下他们刚刚完成的活动的真相、完全的谎言或隐瞒的谎言。这些陈述被 SCAN 和另一种言语测谎工具现实监控（RM）进行编码。RM 能显著地区分说实话者和完全说谎者，以及说实话者和隐瞒说谎者，而 SCAN 则不能区分说实话者和任何一种说谎者。讨论了这些发现对 SCAN 作为测谎工具的适用性的影响。
