Abstract

Behavioral analysis is a method used in conducting a targeted interview with suspects, where the ultimate goal is to obtain reliable information. The main task of the behavioral analysis is to distinguish the sincere from the insincere subject on the basis of their behavior. It can also be used by experts as a preliminary interview, during which the verbal, non-verbal and para-verbal behavior of the subject is analyzed. It is also very useful in screening procedures, in which there is lack of sufficient information in relation to the specific case at hand, and at the same time there are many suspects. This article presents the essence of behavioral analysis, basic guidelines for the procedure of conducting it, and a comparative analysis of the reactions of sincere and insincere suspects.
