A Quasi-experiment to Determine the Impact of a Computer Based Deception Detection Training System: The Use of Agent99 Trainer in the U.S. Military

The idea of anywhere and anytime learning is enticing. Electronic-based learning is seen as an answer to this requirement. Currently there are many variations in electronic-based instructional media, and there is little research to determine which format or combination of formats is most conducive to facilitating knowledge transfer and learning. This research project explores three primary constructs of media richness, content flexibility, and forced engagement, in relation to effectiveness or productivity in facilitating learning in the experimental participants. The instructional subject matter was detecting deceptive communication
