I am extremely skeptical of Paul Ekman's training products and research on lie detection in general. He no longer publishes studies in peer-reviewed journals, as he claims that to do so might jeopardize national security. I assess a significant chance that the actual reason for this is so that he can make money from selling expensive consultancy/training services without having to face critiques from the mainstream scientific community.
