“…Moreover, the use of computational stylometric cues to detect deceit relies on various theoretical hypotheses commonly accepted by the community, such as the Reality Monitoring framework (e.g., Bond and Lee, 2005), or the Interpersonal Deception Theory combined with the Self-Presentation Perspective (e.g., Hancock et al, 2004). And as highlighted previously, the rationale behind stylometry is the one of the idiolect-baseline hypothesis, which has been supported by numerous studies (e.g., Barlow, 2013;Daelemans, 2013;Johnson and Wright, 2017;Kestemont, 2014;Stoop and van den Bosch, 2014;van Halteren et al, 2005;Wright, 2017). We thus argue that the theories underlying the use of the stylometric methodologies have generally been accepted by the scientific community.…”
