The use of truth by polygraph

Ioan Aron

Simulated behavior (dissimulated) stands for one’s refuse to confess and admit a real attitude towards a certain person or the attempt to hide from himself a certain desire he feels.
Simulation is the action in which someone imitates or consciously provokes himself physical or psychic changes in order to obtain certain advantages. Simulation is the specific form of deviant behavior that stands between normal and pathological, with psyhicopathologial substance or
without it.
The intention of misleading is done, on anxious persons, usually by three ways:
a) by rationalization, in which the person offers the most plausible reasons to justify certain acts that he himself blames.
b) others try projecting (projection) their personal attitudes in someone else’s tab.
c) the opposite of this kind of misleading is identification, in which the person is willingly taking upon himself other people’s behavior.
The main feature of simulated behavior is intentionality, where lie is an intentional mistake.
