Understanding the Pinocchio Effect

The video explores the Pinocchio effect, where lying causes a rise in nose temperature. It explains the scientific basis involving the insula, a brain region linked to temperature regulation. An experiment is conducted using a poker player and a thermographic camera to observe temperature changes during lying. The results are analyzed to confirm the effect.

What happens to a person's nose when they lie, according to the Pinocchio effect?

• It grows longer.

• It gets colder.

• It gets warmer.

• It changes color.

Which part of the brain is associated with the Pinocchio effect?

• Hippocampus

• Amygdala

• Insula

• Cerebellum

What is the role of the insula in the context of the Pinocchio effect?

• It processes visual information.

• It regulates heart rate.

• It controls muscle movement.

• It detects and regulates body temperature.

Who was chosen as the subject for the experiment on the Pinocchio effect?

• A professional poker player

• A politician

• A scientist

• A magician

What equipment was used to measure the nose temperature during the experiment?

• A thermographic camera

• A stethoscope

• A thermometer

• A barometer

During the interrogation, what was the poker player instructed to do?

• Remain silent

• Tell the truth

• Randomly lie

• Ask questions

What was the purpose of the interrogation room setup?

• To record voice changes

• To test the player's memory

• To observe changes in nose temperature

• To measure heart rate

What was the role of the interrogator in the experiment?

• To analyze the data

• To operate the thermographic camera

• To apply pressure and elicit lies

• To provide scientific explanations

What was the main finding from the data analysis of the experiment?

• The nose temperature remained constant.

• The nose temperature fluctuated randomly.

• The nose temperature decreased when lying.

• The nose temperature increased when lying.

What color indicates lying in the thermographic analysis?

• Yellow

• Green

• Blue

• Red
