Longer response times when lying are indicative of additional cognitive processes compared to telling the truth.

Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that longer response times when lying are indicative of additional cognitive processes compared to telling the truth?

Yes. Evidence consistently shows that lying requires additional cognitive processes and executive control, which corresponds to longer response times compared to telling the truth.

The analysis

The retrieved literature (particularly papers 3 and 7) directly supports the claim that deception involves greater cognitive workload, executive control, response conflict, and strategic monitoring, which manifests empirically as slower response times and distinct neurophysiological markers when compared to truth-telling.
