Do you know the difference between communicating to CONVEY versus CONVINCE? You need to! Here's why.
In the world of deceptive analysis, it has been proven by research that liars tend to convince you of information while truth-tellers convey it. How do you know the difference?
Truth-tellers think - how can I provide clear, concise details to help you understand? Liars think - what can I say to sound believable and convince you to believe me?
If you ask someone a Yes/No question, a truth-teller usually has no issue answering with a simple "yes" or "no." Why? Because they are not out to convince you. A liar tends to oversell the "yes" and "no" answer by saying things like, "Absolutely, all of the time, or, I would never do that," while being incongruent with their head nodding and shaking.
