Behavior Symptom Analysis: At the conclusion of this segment of the program, the participant will have a behavioral profile for both the truthful and deceptive individual that can be used as a model for the evaluation of subjects in future investigative interviews.

The Behavior Analysis Interview: During this segment of the program we will discuss how to phrase and ask the behavior provoking questions, and describe the type of answers to anticipate from the truthful and deceptive individuals.

The Reid Nine Steps of Interrogation: In this segment of the training program we will discuss the interrogation process, beginning with how to initiate the confrontation; develop the interrogational theme; stop denials; overcome objections; and, use the alternative question to stimulate the admission.

During each of these three segments we will show videotapes of actual interviews and interrogations to illustrate the material.
