A code of conduct, both written and oral, legislates that you count all of your shots, improve lies only when and where permitted, and keep as cool after sinking a putt from 20 feet as missing one from 20 inches.

Experiment 2 tested the efficacy of anodal transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS), a form of non-invasive electrical brain stimulation, of the temporoparietal junction (TPJ) to improve lie-detection accuracy on opinion-inconsistent trials.
However, care should be taken when considering the use of tDCS to improve lie detection in real-world situations, where even the 87% lie-detection accuracy achieved by polygraphs [ 26] does not ensure that truths are not flagged as lies and vice versa especially in situations where the base rate of lying is likely to be low, such as in employment screening.
These results suggest that boosting the ability to control representations of the self and other in this case inhibiting one's own opinion in order to more accurately represent that of the other can improve lie detection in opinion-inconsistent situations.
Experiment 2 confirmed this second prediction: anodal tDCS of the TPJ improved lie detection specifically when one's own and others' views were conflicting.
Inconsistency between one's own and another's stated opinion impairs lie detection Stimulation of the right TPJ improves lie detection in opinion-inconsistent situations Inconsistency between one's own and another's stated opinion impairs lie detection Stimulation of the right TPJ improves lie detection in opinion-inconsistent situations Sowden et al.
Experiment 2 demonstrated that this performance interference effect could be reduced through anodal stimulation of TPJ, improving lie detection specifically on those trials in which this effect was most prominent.
In line with previous demonstrations across these different social domains, it was predicted that stimulation of the TPJ would allow representation of one's own opinion to be inhibited and representation of the other's opinion to be enhanced, leading to a reduction in the opinion inconsistency effect and improved lie-detection performance on opinion-inconsistent trials.
These results raise the possibility that holding an opinion inconsistent with that expressed by another may interfere with the ability to judge the veracity of the expressed opinion and that increasing the ability to inhibit representation of one's own opinion and enhance that of the other may result in improved lie-detection performance when opinions are inconsistent.
Don't make them hit the ball where it lies, always let them improve their lie.
It should be noted that the IR is not decreased here and the burden to improve quality lies on DST.
