Talk:Motivation and emotion/Book/2019/Pathological lying motivation

Some suggestions
Hi, one suggestion I would make is to consider whether the treatment options you listed actually work. That is does the treatment options address the motivation behind lying in the first place? Your chapter looks great! --BMPENFOLD (discuss • contribs) 03:21, 13 October 2019 (UTC)

Hi, I have corrected the spacing in your references and also inserted hanging indents. This TED Talk could be beneficial to put under the external links tab https://www.ted.com/talks/pamela_meyer_how_to_spot_a_liar?language=en#t-496394. Also, you should consider revising the use of italics throughout this topic. --U3173837 (discuss • contribs) 17:55, 31 August 2019 (UTC)

Hi there, Really interesting topic and some very interesting research you've put forward. Just as I was going through your article I noticed that you don't have DOI's or "Retrieved from" on all of the references in your list. Also, the second subheading starting with "what motivates people" is missing some wording, I would suggest wording it as "what motivates people to lie so frequently". Thanks --Jackmccann021 (discuss • contribs) 08:33, 1 September 2019 (UTC)

A link
Hi, here is a link to check out that I thought was interesting and could benefit your topic. My topic is on the other end of the spectrum: honesty motivation. --U3169316 (discuss • contribs) 21:39, 1 September 2019 (UTC)

Example
Your book chapter is extremely interesting and I can't wait to read it when it is done. It may benefit to put in some examples of pathological liars. I found this one literature review (Thom, Teslyar & Friedman, 2017) which includes the case study of a woman admitting herself into emergency at the hospital. In another case study, an American judge was a pathological liar, who lied to become a judge as well as lying throughout his career as a judge and even during the investigation into his lies (Dike, Baranoski & Griffith, 2005).

Feedback
This is a great start and it is looking good, when you first discuss the false self, as a lay reader I did not understand what a false self is. To improve the readability of the page consider adding a brief description of what a false self is. I look forwards to the finished chapter.

Feedback
Hi, I just wanted to make a comment about the polygraphs that I read about in your book chapter. I had read about them being banned in reality tv recently and found it quite interesting that you mentioned that some countries still use them in use them in the justice system while other do not.--U3144248 (discuss • contribs) 13:53, 20 October 2019 (UTC)
