写在前面：此文译自问答网站Quaro，问题"What is the easiest way to catch a liar?"下，答主Desmond Ravenstone的回答。
这是一个在警局做审讯的熟人告诉我的小技巧，后来我也在别处得到了验证：当别人说完他们的故事之后，向他们发问使其再复述一遍（例：“你说你当时下车时做了什么？”），但是以从故事结尾到开头的顺序提问。因为与那些凭真是记忆叙述的人相比，编故事的人很难记住反向的细节。
原文：This is a technique that an acquaintance of mine - a police officer who did interrogations - suggested to me, and I later confirmed from another source: After they tell their story, go over it with them again in the form of questions (e.g., “And what did you do when you got out of the car?”) but do it backwards from the end of the story to the beginning. Someone fabricating a story is going to have a harder time keeping details straight going from end to beginning, as opposed to someone recalling those details from memory.
