Converus has not conducted this type of research. However, there were two experiments with polygraph that indicated that psychopaths are no better at defeating the polygraph than non-psychopaths. It seems logical that this outcome would be the same with EyeDetect due to the types of physiological changes measured. (Source: Raskin, D. C , & Hare,

We do not expect that preconceived or practiced lies would have an effect on EyeDetect’s ability to detect changes in cognitive load. By contrast, it seems logical that brain imaging technologies could pick up noticeable differences between practiced and spontaneous lies. Examples of brain imaging solutions include fMRI, MEG, and EEG.

There are many methods to be deceptive. At the heart of these methods is the intention to be deceptive. Some lie to be protective – lie to guard the liar from a perceived danger. Some, to be heroic– lie to protect others from danger. Others lie in a playful manner – lie to enhance a

British research found that men lie twice as much as women. (Source: http://www.today.com/health/how-one-lie-can-ruin-your-whole-day-1D80224805#
