Hi, I wanted to know if someone have some advice to memorize in the long term the non -verbal and verbal baseline of a person, to know if they lie or not. Because I am passionate about the fact to know more about a person just by looking at them or tell when they lie or not, like Sherlock holmes. So if you have any advice about that, don’t hesitate. wink: +1:

Usually, you need to know person quite well, background, the culture and current state of their life (emotional, financial, ideologies) and etc… You are better off to learn to listen to people. I highly recommend “Negotiate as your life depends on it”. This book changed my life. If Chris Voss did not rely on how to read people, I expect you might have even less success…
I have a Memory Palace dedicated to learning “Body Language” fundamentals. I put “Characters” with a specific body posture in the locus of my MP. This way,it is easy to remember what a certain posture of a person could mean…Very easy to remember…

Well detecting lies isn’t body language alone.
It’s the combination of
Difference in occurence of hand gestures,
pacifiers (term taken over from Joe Navarro)
Differences in voice pitch
Differences in talking speed
Difference in voice volume
micro expressions
emblems
difference in breathing speed and pattern
and many more. Don’t know if it’s possible/useful to save those informations personwise in an own memory palace tho.
Thanks I will put this book in my reading list 
I agree about what you say but each people tell the truth in different way, so to know if a person is lying you need first to ask questions where the person will more often than not tell the truth and calibrate with the new data you have to eleminate the possible misinterpretation or the false positive as you say.
My question is how to memorize this data and attach it to the person in question, so we don’t have to do it all over again.
And thanks for advice and your participation, it’s always great to talk with people who have the same passion
Hi, thanks for sharing this method I will try to use it without being perceive as a police officer. 
And you to have a great day
Can you explain in more details your method, or give an exemple please ? I have the ellipsis manual by Chase hughes and there is a lot of information about body language I want to memorise.
ANYTHING can be stored in a Memory Palace!! Anything!!
Regarding usefulness,all learning ‘start’ from storing data(any type) in the memory! No memory,no learning!

It might be interesting to memorize techniques related to criminal/forensic psychology, though I’m not sure where to find a list. Some of these interviews with criminals are interesting. (Warning: some of the cases are especially grim.)
The narrator explains some of the techniques the detectives are using to determine lies and extract more information. Sometimes they do specific things to prompt certain behavior that can then reveal things that aren’t true.
Edit: maybe those videos aren’t the best source of information. One of the techniques they mentioned in the videos is the Reid Technique, but other sources suggest that it isn’t reliable.
For example, one frequent critic of the Reid Technique, law professor Richard Leo, argues that extensive social science research has demonstrated:
that people are poor at making accurate judgments of truth and deception in general, that the behavior cues police rely on in particular are not diagnostic of deception, and that investigators cannot distinguish truthful from false denials of guilt at rates significantly greater than chance, but instead routinely make confidently held yet erroneous judgments (Leo 2013, 203).
Leo 2013 cites Pitfalls and Opportunities in Nonverbal and Verbal Lie Detection. I didn’t read it, but it looks interesting.
