Research from a Bowling Green State University faculty member recently found that one of the best strategies in the context of the criminal justice system is an old-fashioned virtue: telling the truth. Thomas Mowen, Ph.D., an associate professor of sociology and research affiliate of the Center for Family and Demographic Research at BGSU, published a study in the journal Deviant Behavior that examined whether lying behaviors—purposely being deceitful in an attempt to gain an advantage—actually worked in the criminal justice system.
Researcher finds that telling the truth is correlated with better criminal justice outcomes
