The basic idea is that when a person looks to the right they

are constructing an idea and when they look to the left they

are recalling something that has actually happened. Since

a lie is essentially a mental construction, people will often

access that part of the brain when trying to come up with a

lie and will look to the right.

Do people look to the left or right when they are lying?

It's not that simple. Some people will avoid eye contact when lying, but others are better liars, and do not give themselves away. You have to look for a pattern of movements or direction that their eyes move, not just left or right, that doesnt work on everyone. face expressions, hand movements, pitch of voice, there are lots of ways to tell, but everyone is slightly different when they lie. Its up to you to be sharp enough to tell what the sign is as you talk to them.
