Security Perspective: The Halo Effect: good looking people and women are innocent!
What was my presentation about?
Whilst many critics of behavioural analysis argue that screeners are likely to racially profile, is that the only way in which bias and stereotyping impacts effective security decision-making? The ‘halo effect’ – where good looking people are deemed to be innocent – could be an even greater concern. So, to what extent does an offender’s appearance, or for that matter, their sex, impact the likelihood of their being interdicted? We examine the issue from a border control perspective and consider the challenges faced in training border guards to avoid stereotyping and appreciate that good looking people and women can also be threats!

I am a behavioral profiler and a researcher investigating nonverbal communication. For many years, I have been running a training and consulting firm called the Institute of Nonverbal Communication, under which I carry out research using biosensor technologies.
Observing and examining human behaviors is a passion of mine. I dedicate a lot of time to the notion of perceived physical appearance and expression of emotions using facial appearance with due account of cultural differences. I am secretly hoping that you will find this subject fascinating, too!
