This is an unconsciously gesture people use when under stress.

When people lie often there is a slight rise in body temperature, people feel "hot under the collar" and this gesture is done to relieve some of the heat.

When someone is holding back information people will tug at their collar because they may feel a a little tickle on the sensitive neck tissue.

If a person is angry or frustrated this gesture could be used in an attempt to remove any restrictions, also because the blood pressure and body temperature are on the rise.◦
