truth.

III. GENERALIZATION
Identifying the types of lies and who might be lying can be challenging because some situations
appear to fit multiple categories of lies or liars. However, the activity provides distinguishing
features that help us determine the type of lie or liar involved. By observing how the lie is
executed and considering its purpose, we can deduce the appropriate category. This activity not
only increases our understanding of lying behaviors but also enhances our ability to analyze and
recognize them effectively.
