Outline of Final Research Achievements

This study examined the effect of simultaneous auditory and visual stimulus presentation in the event-related potentials-based the detection of deception: (1) the effect of single-probe task using subject’s own name, (2) the effect of single-probe task using mock crime scenario task, (3) comparison between character and picture stimulus, (4) comparison between the index of peripheral and central nervous system, (5) examination of the interval between a mock crime and the examination, and (6) effects of countermeasures. Results suggest that the field applications of the event-related potentials-based the detection of deception are feasible with simultaneous visual and auditory stimulus presentation method.
