History

My interest in deceptive CMC goes back to about 1993AFOSR grant 2001-2006Deception literature had largely left unexplored issues dealing with CMC, groups & culture

Four studies investigating cultural differences, two of which were dissertations that will be reported on hereSlide4

Justification for Cultural Studies

With the rapid spread of CMC, it is now possible for billions of people all over the world to make video calls with each other via Skype for free

With increased (and low cost) exposure to people from many different cultures, it wouldn’t hurt to expand our understanding of other cultures

In any communication event, the possibility of deception is always present – What do we know about deceptive practices and attitudes towards deception in cultures other than our own?Slide5

Overall Research Question

Do espoused cultural values affect deceptive behavior and deception detection accuracy within and between people of varying cultures using CMC? Slide6

Japan, US, Australia, Netherlands, Germany

Collectivist

groups more apt to deceive in business negotiations than individualist groups

Fu et al 2001

Canada

& Chinese

Canadians

considered lies concealing pro-social behavior to be lies, but Chinese did not & rated such behavior favorably

to identify deception in their second language than in native language

Atoum 2000US, Jordan & IndiaIndividuals do not perceive those from other cultures as more deceptive than individuals from their own cultureSlide18

Study 1: Media selection

Dissertation by Chris Furner, West Texas A&M UniversityRQ: How does espoused national culture influence media choice in a deceptive context?Slide19

Research Design

Created 4 scenarios, which varied by:Familiarity (stranger or friend)

Severity of the situation (trivial or serious)

Embedded scenarios in questionnaires, which also included demographic and other items

Questionnaire translated into Mandarin & back to English; discrepancies addressed

Distributed to 261 American students and 194 Chinese students (PRC)Slide20

Research Procedures

Questionnaires distributed to students at universities in US & PRCEach questionnaire contained 1 of the 4 scenarios

In each scenario, boss asks employee to lie

Respondent asked to choose one medium for the deceptive task

Respondent asked to give a reason for the choiceSlide21

Findings by Cultural Characteristic

Individuals who scored highly on espoused collectivism preferred to lie using text-based media (F (3, 370) = 2.811, p=0.039)

Individuals who scored highly on espoused power distance preferred to lie using voice-based media (F (3, 370) = 3.01, p=0.030)

Individuals who scored highly on espoused masculinity preferred to use visual media when lying (F (3, 370) = 7.683, p < 0.001)Slide26

Study 2: Deception detection

Dissertation by Carmen Lewis, now at Troy UniversityWork supported by Gabe Giordano, who was at IESE in Barcelona at the time data were collected, & who is now at Miami University

RQ1: To what extent does CMC affect deceptive behavior and deception detection?

RQ2: How do espoused cultural values affect deceptive behavior and deception detection accuracy within and between people of varying cultures using CMC?Slide27

Experimental DesignSlide28

Experimental Procedures

Phase 1

Conduct CMC Résumé Interviews

Subjects: Students

Honest and dishonest communication took place during the questioning of the résumé-

based interview

The interviewee was videotaped:

20 American, 20 Spanish

Phase 2

Edit Tapes

The interview tapes were edited to separate honest and dishonest exchanges

2

stimulus tapes

32 snippets per tape:

16 honest, 16 dishonest

8 audio/video, 8 audio, 8 video, 8 text

Phase 3

Test Deception Detection Ability

Third-party observers watched the stimulus via a computer:

106 American, 104 Spanish

Each observer was asked to document where the lying occurred and what cues indicated that the interviewee was being dishonest

Observer:

Interviewer: How would this scholarship help you in any way?

Interviewee: Umm, the scholarship would really help me out with umm … Well I am actually a student completely umm financially independent from my parents. So, the scholarship would help me with uh finishing up paying my tuition, my books, and my living expenses here on campus.

Interviewer: And what’s your year in college?

Interviewee: I’m a senior.Slide32

Preliminary Findings Regarding Reliable Indicators of Deception

Both groups, visual cues:

Adaptors (excessive hand movements, fidgeting)

Spanish interview participants, visual cues:

Smiling

Swallowing more strongly than usual

Pressed lips

American interview participants, visual cues:

Less facial pleasantnessSlide39

Reliable Indicators of Deception

(

con’t

)

Both groups, verbal cues:

Changes in vocal pitch

Repetition

Illogical sentence structure

Brief replies

Pauses & hesitationsSlide40

Reliable Indicators of Deception

(

con’t

)

Easy cues for all judges to detect:

Pauses & hesitations

Changes in vocal pitch

One incorrect cue commonly cited:

Gaze aversionSlide41

Concluding Remarks

There are differences in deceptive behavior and these differences do seem to have some impact on deception detection

However, there is still much to learn about these differences, especially at the intersection of culture, deception & CMC
