The deceptive brain
Recent research suggests that it is possible to determine, scientifically, whether another human being is lying to us. Dr Sean Spence explains and puts Raj's powers of deception to the test.

Crisis intervention training
Police officers in the UK frequently have to deal with people who suffer from mental illness, but never receive training on mental health awareness or on how to deal with sufferers. Dr Shaun Parsons and Sergeant Jon Dowd explain a new scheme, being piloted by Northumbria police, which seeks to redress this. Dr Shaun Parsons, forensic psychologist at the University of Newcastle.

Cyril Burt
Until his death in 1971, Cyril Burt was considered one of the most significant educational psychologists of his time and his work on intelligence in children was instrumental in the formation of the 11+. However now arguments rage about whether he fabricated his data. Richard Rawls, senior lecturer at University College London, tells the story. | | |
