lie about yourself in the Internet portals for matching is a very common practice. But users who do not want to be deceived may take into account certain factors that betray these false biographies.
Catalina takes, specialist in communication from the University of Wisconsin-Madison (United States), found in new research that analyzing the language that people use to describe themselves it is possible to find clues of lies.
″La motivation to lie of individuals looking for online dating is the same as that found in traditional citations. What we know of the communication in general can apply to the language used online″, says decision-making.
Its conclusions were published in the Journal of Communication Magazine.
Lies of legs short
Takes worked with 78 people seeking couples online. On the one hand, he made a linguistic analysis of descriptions published themselves and, on the other, compared his weight, height and real age which reported on the portal.
The specialist found, in the first instance, that liars use very little the first person, i.e. not telling ″yo″. ″Hacen this because they want to distance themselves from his mentirosas″ statements, details.
In turn, little honest users are widely used the disclaimers. For example, instead of saying that they are happy they express that they do not feel sad. In addition, it is also common to short of their own descriptions.
″No want to say much. The liars are experiencing a great cognitive load. They don’t want to think too much. The less write less lies will have to remember and hold después″, explains decision-making.
The specialist also noted that users who lied about their age, height or weight, or published a photo which is is at odds with reality, tended not to mention its appearance in the descriptions.
Takes speculates that perhaps ″un day has a software to indicate the possibilities that a person is lying in your profile, or even that someone is cheating in a mail″.
