In the intricate dance of human interaction, the interplay between honesty and deceit weaves a web that often remains hidden beneath the surface. The dichotomy between truth and falsehood, while an inherent part of our daily lives, harbors a complexity that transcends mere words. Engaging in the act of lying triggers a cascade of responses that reverberate through our bodies and minds, painting a vivid portrait of the intertwined nature of our physical and verbal expressions. The palpable effects of deceit, from elevated respiratory and heart rates to beads of sweat forming on our skin and the quiver in our voice, underpin the very foundations of the classic lie-detector (polygraph) test. Strikingly, our capacity to deceive is not uniform, a reality shaped, in part, by the intricacies of our individual brain structures.
