“…More recent research relaxing reliance on the built‐in algorithmic conclusion variables for identifying deception find that the LVA variables from more primitive layers do statistically discriminate between truth and deception (Elkins (2010), Elkins and Burgoon (2010)). These findings are similar to Brown et al (2003), who perform exploratory logistic regression analysis for predicting deception and find that detection capabilities are greatly improved using more primitive LVA variables instead of the prepackaged algorithmic variables. Moreover, Elkins and Burgoon (2010) show that these more primitive LVA measures can distinguish between responses to charged and neutral questions, and that the full collection of primitive LVA measures appears to identify latent constructs that correlate with self‐reported subject scores of emotional state.…”

We measure managerial affective states during earnings conference calls by analyzing conference call audio files using vocal emotion analysis software. We hypothesize and find that, when managers are scrutinized by analysts during conference calls, positive and negative affects displayed by managers are informative about the firm's financial future. Analysts do not incorporate this information when forecasting near-term earnings. When making stock recommendation changes, however, analysts incorporate positive but not negative affect. This study presents new evidence that managerial vocal cues contain useful information about a firm's fundamentals, incremental to both quantitative earnings information and qualitative "soft" information conveyed by linguistic content.It is not what you say that matters but the manner in which you say it; there lies the secret of the ages.-
