Website Mentions Psychology Research
The work of a UMaine psychologist was noted on the website International Business Times in a story about the accuracy issues of survey-taking. A study done by Michele Alexander (a UMaine faculty member who was killed in a car accident in 2003) and a fellow researcher at Ohio State was cited as having found women were more likely to tell the truth if they thought they were hooked up to a lie detector, while men were more likely to be consistent with their answers.
