Abstract
This essay reviews some oddities, inconsistencies, and paradoxes evident in the social scientific literature on human deception detection. Major findings from the literature are surveyed. Contrasts are drawn between folk wisdom, the logic of dominant social scientific theory, and the conclusions drawn from extensive empirical findings. It is argued that Truth-Default Theory helps to reveal some persistent myths and it solves some otherwise perplexing mysteries in the social science of human deception and deception detection.
