Title of project: Liar, Liar Pants on Fire
Type: Research
Guide: Dr. Jeff Morrissette 

In this project Arts and Sciences (psychology) student Andrew Miller used the LTU library and other resources to research the history, science and legal aspects of polygraph testing. He then developed and tested a polygraph laboratory module to be used in our Forensic Summer Science Institute. At FSSI, Andrew presented his polygraph research and led the students through his laboratory exercise with each student getting the chance to record and analyze their own polygraph. As the final piece of his project, Andrew will present a seminar at an upcoming LTU symposium. Through this project, Andrew gained valuable insight into literature searches, experimental design, data analysis, and research dissemination.
