In the June, 2006 issue of , Dr. Aldert Vrij published an article entitled, "An Empirical Test of the Behaviour Analysis Interview." In this article Dr. Vrij (and colleagues) conducted a test of what they believed to be the BAI in an effort to determine the effectiveness of the process in identifying truthful and deceptive subjects in a mock theft case. However, in their description of the BAI it was clear that they did not understand the BAI process and actually misrepresented it. When our office wrote to Dr. Vrij (and Brian Cutler, the editor of Law and Human Behavior) about his erroneous statements and misrepresentations in his article, Dr. Vrij responded by suggesting our book was poorly written regarding our description of the BAI process. (Dr. Vrij apparently read only one chapter in the book rather than all six of the chapters that discuss interviewing techniques, and never attended a Reid seminar or contacted our office for information).

In our effort to have the publication, Law and Human Behavior, publish a clarification Editor Cutler stated "I do not believe the corrections that you note rise to a level that require a published erratum or commentary."
