One of the important issues in criminal interrogations is the information obtained from the person being interrogated. It can be obtained verbally as well as non-verbally. This review aims to discuss in general terms the things to consider when analyzing nonverbal behavior in criminal interrogations. In this context, the basic principles of analyzing nonverbal behaviors are discussed in detail, and their role in interrogations is emphasized. While addressing these issues, the sub-dimensions of nonverbal behaviors are categorized and explained as facial expressions, voice, gestures, and other body movements. Moreover, the profile of people who lie is presented considering the information in meta-analysis studies. Finally, a Nonverbal Behavior Training Program has been proposed to improve the nonverbal behavior skills of professionals participating in criminal interrogations. In this way, it is thought that relevant professional staff will contribute to the investigation process.

Kriminal görüşmelerde önemli hususlardan birisi sorguya alınan kişiden edinilen bilgilerdir. Bu bilgiler sözlü olduğu kadar sözsüz olarak elde edilebilir. Bu derlemenin amacı kriminal görüşmelerde sözsüz davranış analizi yapılırken dikkat edilmesi gerekenleri genel hatlarıyla ele almaktır. Bu bağlamda sözsüz davranışları analiz etmenin temel ilkeleri ayrıntılarıyla tartışılmış ve sorgulamalardaki rolü vurgulanmıştır. Bu hususlara değinilirken sözsüz davranışların alt boyutları yüz ifadeleri, ses, jestler ve diğer beden hareketleri olarak kategorilendirilmiş ve açıklanmıştır. Dahası, yalan söyleyen şahısların nasıl bir profile sahip olduğu meta-analiz çalışmalarındaki bilgiler ışığında sunulmuştur. Son olarak, kriminal görüşmeye katılan meslek elemanlarının sözsüz davranışlara ilişkin becerilerini geliştirmeye yönelik Sözsüz Davranış Eğitimi Programı önerilmiştir. Böylelikle ilgili meslek elemanlarının soruşturma işlemlerine katkı sağlayacağı düşünülmektedir.
